Note: The only applies DocuShare Archive Servers.
Since the DocuShare Archive Server is a separate, although special-purpose DocuShare site, the DocuShare Archive Server administrator has the same privileges as an administrator on a standard DocuShare site. There are exceptions that the Archive Server administrator should be aware of when administering an Archive Server.
• Only the admin account can log into a DocuShare Archive Server. Neither Users nor Guests can log into an Archive Server. Admin privileges are the same as those on a standard DocuShare site, although admin must be careful to avoid creating problems by misuse of certain administration tools.
• Admin should not create new objects on an Archive Server. As with all DocuShare objects, objects created on an Archive Server are given unique handles. If an object on the main site has the same handle as an object created on the Archive Server, the object on the main site cannot be archived.
• Admin should not edit object properties, permissions, owner, location, or any other characteristics of archived objects.
• Admin should not make changes to object classes or object class properties.
• Admin should not attempt to resolve orphans on the Archive Server. Running the List Orphans tool will list all archived objects on the Archive Server.
• Admin should not change Archive Server access policies.
• Admin should not change site configuration options that involve either user accounts or Archive Server usage.
• Admin should not change html or image conversion services.
• If the domain of a main DocuShare site changes, the Admin must change the domain of the Archive Server. Main DocuShare sites and the Archive Server must use the same domain. After you have changed the domain name of the Archive Server; go to the main DocuShare site, use Services and Components l Archive Server to change the domain name, click Apply, then restart DocuShare for the change to take effect.
