I run a local dns server that forwards to my ISP for local names it can't
resolve. This is what you mean by a "split server"?
Since I have an operational zimbra 4.5.1 on a different box (I pointed
the mx record there and installed), can I tar up /opt/zimbra/db, carry it
to the new box and untar it in place? The 3.0 to 4.5.1 upgrade appears
to have correctly updated all my mailboxes (well, no errors), so swapping one for the
other should be ok? So I would stop zimbra (/sbin/service zimbra stop),
tar up the old /opt/zimbra/db (tar zcf /tmp/zimbra-db.tgz /opt/zimbra/db)
rename the old db directory (mv /opt/zimbra/db /opt/zimbra/db.old), untar
the updated stuff into /opt/zimbra/db and restart the server. Or is there
a preferred (better) way to do this?
