SYMPTOMS
When a member of a Groove workspace uses Microsoft Office Groove 2007 or an earlier version of Groove on multiple computers, Groove may automatically suspend some computers from the workspace.



CAUSE
If a member of a Groove workspace uses Groove on multiple computers, Groove automatically suspends each computer as soon as it goes 21 days without connecting to receive changes. This behavior continues until the member is down to one computer that receives updates from the workspace. When a computer is suspended, workspace changes are no longer queued to be sent to that computer.

A workspace manager must manually suspend the member for the last computer that does not synchronize for 21 days. A member who uses Groove on a single computer will never be suspended automatically. A workspace manager must explicitly suspend the member after the workspace manager receives a synchronization alert for the workspace.



STATUS
This behavior is by design.
