Sorry to use this thread, but it seems fit o.k. My questions about DR:
With /opt/zimbra, /opt/zimbra/store, and /opt/zimbra/backup on separate SAN disks, is it enough to only backup /opt/zimbra/backup directory off site for disaster recovery purpose?
Is there a DR wiki for 5.0.X version with multiple-server installation? The one I found is for 4.X, single server installation, which is very different from 5.0.X multi-server installation, and the documentation seems not certified by Zimbra for 5.0.X DR.
We are now close to 800GB usage in /opt/zimbra/backup directory, with 2000 accounts The user number will double. The standard daily zmbackup is already taken 2 hours. The DR copy will have to be performed after the zmbackup is completed. This will push the backup well into work hours. Any one has performance issue while zmbackup is still running during the peak time?
BTW, we use TSM (Tivoli Storage Management) to backup the /opt/zimbra/backup directory. It's working fine, except takes long time - 3 hours for about million files, 140GB transfered data. Not sure how this will scale when we have more accounts and data.
Thanks!  |
