Changing Zimlet Configurations

Some Zimlets may require additional configuration after they are deployed.

The Zimlet configuration template allows you to make changes on the configuration template and then install the new configuration file on the Zimbra server.

See the Zimlet Development section on the Zimbra Wiki, Zimlet Developers Guide for details about developing and deploying Zimlets.

To change a Zimlet configuration:

1.	Extract the configuration template

zmzimletctl getConfigTemplate <zimlet.zip>

2.	Make the required changes in the template. Be careful to change only the required areas. Save the file.

Note:

If you have more than one custom Zimlet, rename the config_template.xml file before updating the configuration in LDAP so that files are not overwritten.

3.	Type the following command to update the configuration in the LDAP. If you changed the name of the configuration template, replace config_template.xml with the new name.

zmzimletctl configure config_template.xml
