The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

GroupWise GWCheck Interpretation Question

Asked by MMDCisco in Novell Groupwise

Tags:

Hello All.  I'm using GW6.0Sp4 and ran a GWCheck against a users account.  I am pasteing several sections from the summary section just to verify that I'm interpreting properly.  I think it says that the user mailbox is using 882Megs.  My first question is about the first line in the following section, specifically, what does
-184782848 bytes mean?
+++ Paste 1
  Checking message database msg5.db           -184782848 bytes, 01/19/06 04:33
  - Current time 11:34 pm
    STRUCTURAL VERIFICATION of database IS300\gwlib:\grpwise\docspo\ofmsg\msg5.db
      Verifying data
      - Database is structurally consistent
      Reducing database IS300\gwlib:\grpwise\docspo\ofmsg\msg5.db
        - no storage reclaimed.
    CONTENTS VERIFICATION of database msg5.db
    CONTENTS VERIFICATION of user's outgoing MSG database
+++ End Paste 1

Here is the part 2 of the summary that I have a question about.  It does say specifically how much space is being used: 882713 kbytes
+++ Paste 2
  User stats:  3925 InBox, 11410 OutBox, 77 WasteBasket
  Disk space management values:  Size Limit - 0KB, Threshold - 0%
      882713 kbytes in use by user's mail
      15598 records read
      7 attachment file references found
+++ End Paste 2
How does this differ from the -184782848 bytes noted in the first section?

For your reference here is the rest of the summary:
