Let's think this through:
Are you only in terminal mode? if so, that's good. Stop x, kde, and gnome.
KDE can easiely use up 110MB by itself. I don't know how much gnome can use up, but I would guess it's in the ball park.
The thing to remember is that a system will do what ever you want it to do.
It doesn't care how much RAM you have. So, when we talk in terms of memory management, we talk reliability.
The question isn't whether you have enough RAM to run Zimbra, the question is whether you have enough RAM to run Zimbra reliably-which the answer is no.
You can not expect a system with memory issues to log things reliably. Tomcat itself can use 300MB memory on a system with 30 users.
Now, if you stop any unused processes, you might be able to get your data by:
zmcontrol stop
su -root
ps auww | grep zimbra
kill anything left over
su -zimbra
ldap start
mysql.server start
postfix start
tomcat start
That should give you enough to get your data.
Now, once you get your data, you might be able to downgrade to >3.0.1 and run with some sense of reliability. . .while you wait for your server to grow new RAM.
Good luck,
john
