Default Backup script

For those using the OS edition, here is a simple backup script that performs very well.

It stops Zimbra, does an rsync to a backup directory, and starts zimbra again. The backup directory can then be put on your regular backup system.

Simply copy the script to /etc/cron.daily so it gets executed every night.

For systems with up to 500 users the total execution time is of a maximum of 10 minutes, what means that your system will be out of service 10 minutes a day, a reasonable price for the OS edition (IMHO).
