Hi,

It is great.

Alternatively, you can dump LDAP data to get a comprehensive backup. like:

/opt/zextras/common/sbin/slapcat -F /opt/zextras/data/ldap/config -b "" -s "cn=cos,cn=zimbra" -H ldap:///???(&(objectClass=zimbraCos)(!(cn=default))(!(cn=defaultExternal))) -l /opt/zextras/backup/coses.ldif

and

/opt/zextras/backup# /opt/zextras/common/sbin/slapcat -F /opt/zextras/data/ldap/config -b "" -H ldap:///???(&(!(entryDN:dnSubTreeMatch:=cn=zimbra))) > /opt/zextras/backup/provisioning.ldif

And later you can upload the LDAP data using slapadd (/opt/zextras/common/sbin/slapadd)

But thanks for your contribution to our community 🙏

Regards,

Sharif

@sharif yes i will try to help others base on my knowledge since im handled zimbra

from zero to hero always practice and backup its must for prevent bad accident for any actions

So will the scripts (zmprov/zmailbox and slapcat) also backup the contacts and calendar items including shared calendars?

How do you restore the backups taken with the two versions if you need to start from a clean installation?

//Sigtrap

@sigtrap no , this is only backed up user mail (name details ) , user password , user inbox data and distribution group. i will try expand research for complete backup later

After using your backup script, how do you restore the backup to a clean new Carbonio installation?

@sigtrap 

just do and make sure the path correct 

#!/bin/bash
#Script for creating the email accounts createacct.sh

d=`date -d "yesterday" '+%d_%B_%Y'`

#hari ini

d="28_March_2024"

echo

$d

USERPASS="/home/carbonio_backup/user_mail_$d/password"
USERDATA="/home/carbonio_backup/user_mail_$d/account"
USERS="/home/carbonio_backup/user_mail_$d/emails.txt"
for i in `cat $USERS`
do
givenName=$(grep givenName: $USERDATA/$i.txt | cut -d ":" -f2)
displayName=$(grep displayName: $USERDATA/$i.txt | cut -d ":" -f2)
shadowpass=$(cat $USERPASS/$i.shadow)
tmpPass="CHANGEme"
carbonio prov ca $i CHANGEme cn "$givenName" displayName "$displayName" givenName "$givenName"
carbonio prov ma $i userPassword "$shadowpass"
done
