Novell Error Code 8201
amongst my new client shops. Pages Home About Me BrainShare Tips & Tricks Monday, January 10, 2011 8201 Error on Archive location in GroupWise 8.x If you've used GroupWise long at all you've probably seen this error pop up from time to time and you know it has multiple possible causes. However, none of the TIDs that I've come across seem to have the particular issue I've been running into noted. Good news is I have a work around. First though, you'll need some background info. All of our archive locations are locked by default. Default archive locations for this environment are to the http://www.novell.com/documentation/nwec/?page=/documentation/nwec/nwec/data/hxnjs40x.html users home drives. GroupWise version on the backend is 8.01 HP2, client is at 7.03 or higher up to 8.0.2. Home drives are on an OES2 SP2 - Linux server The server is virtualized on VMWare's VSphere (was ESXi to begin with) The symptoms are usually experienced by a new archive user, but not always.

I generally use c:\grpwise\archive to keep within the 8.3 file format. Close the GroupWise client. Open the GroupWise client and change the File Location (Tools | Options) to the new spot on the local drive. Have the user select Open Archive. Go back to the mailbox. Archive a message that is "ok" to potentially lose (only had this happen once, but it's a caveat you'll want to be aware of) Open Archive and verify the message is there. Close the GroupWise client. Copy the archive from the local drive back up to the server, and lock the archive location again (if you want). Open the GroupWise client, verify that the File Location is pointing back to the original locatio
