When running the configuration wizard for the first time, click the “Initialize
Configuration Database” button. This creates the configuration databases used by
Amanda Portal. Click next to continue.
Warning: Only initialize the configuration database once. Initializing a second time will
delete any changes made to the configuration database since the first initialization.
3.2 Initializing Mailboxes
Next you’ll need to initialize the mailbox database. On a new installation, this creates all
of the default mailboxes. Click on the “Initialize Mailboxes” button as shown in figure 7.
Figure 7
Warning: Only initialize mailboxes once. Initializing mailboxes a second time after
building your mailboxes will re-initialize the mailbox database deleting all user
mailboxes, greetings, and messages defaulting the system to a new state. Click next to
continue.
3.3 Importing Mailboxes
If you’re importing a mailbox database previously built, you need to import that data into
Amanda from the “Import Mailboxes” screen (as shown in figure 8). In most cases you’ll
skip this screen (as with a new installation). Click next to continue.
Note: This feature is NOT used when upgrading from [e-mail]/Windows
to Amanda Portal.
