Hello Forum,

does anyone know if there is any way to upgrade from Zimbra to Carbonio Community Edition?

I have Zimbra OSE 8.8.15 with about 60 Accounts. I would like to upgrade to Carbonio Community Edition.

Many thanks for any suggestions.

Manfred

I am in a similar situation and would love to upgrade to Carbonio - but cannot afford to loose data or too much downtime

Hi,

Yes and we are working to prepare a comprehensive mechanism for the migration to Carbonio CE (From any platform especially Zimbra OSE). But meanwhile, you can do this to migrate from Zimbra OSE to Carbonio CE without losing any data.

Method-1
https://community.zextras.com/migrate-zimbra-from-one-server-to-another-server-method-1/
You can follow this method to migrate from Zimbra OSE to Carbonio CE. Without losing your data (email, contacts and calendars).

Method-2
https://community.zextras.com/migrate-zimbra-from-one-server-to-another-server-method-2/

 
You can follow this method to migrate from Zimbra OSE to Carbonio CE. This method will help you to migrate the mailboxes only. Then you have to manually transfer Contacts and Calendars to Carbonio CE by following below steps:

1. Export your contacts & Calendars from Zimbra 8.8.15 OSE 
2. Transfer these files (*.ics & *.csv) to Carbonio CE server
3. Upload them to their respective account using

zextras@mail:~$ curl -k -u imsilsa:123456 --upload-file /tmp/Contacts.csv  https://192.168.1.192/home/imsilsa/contacts?fmt=csv  
zextras@mail:~$
zextras@mail:~$ curl -k -u imsilsa:123456 --upload-file /tmp/Calendars.ics  https://192.168.1.192/home/imsilsa/calendar?fmt=ics
 

Here, replace imsilsa with the username and 123456 the password, and of course 192.168.1.192 with your server_IP.

Note: Set the file permissions accordingly.

Test it on an account and let us know how it went.

Thanks

Sharif
🙂
