i had to switch the domain name and found troubles with the logger and server statistics:

zimbra 4.5.5 on ubuntu 6.06:

these two hints worked fine:

If you follow the directions exactly (stopping the services first), you get an error. If, instead, you just run the command, there is no error, and it stops the services automatically. That seems to have solved my "problem", or at least alleviated my fears. Since the internal DNS lists both domains fully, I'm not too worried about any leftover domain issues.

then:
change of /etc/hosts
and
hostname newhostname

followed by :

For the record this has what fixed:

su - zimbra
zmloggerctl stop
ps aux | grep zmlogger
kill any logger processes
zmloggerctl start
/opt/zimbra/libexec/zmlogprocess

And my graps started working on the fly.

3) after this, i had TWO server-statistics:

-- the old ones with the old servername
-- a new - empty - set with the new servername.

at this point
dnsdomainname still gave me the old domain !

-- i changed the content of the filename /etc/hostname (containing the old hostname ) and did a reboot.

now serverstatistics gives me only one servername, the new one, with the old statistical data still there and the new one displayed in a new set of graphs.

Beware:
before going the way described above, i had tried to solve the logging problem with:
zmprov mcf zimbraLogHostname newhostname
i finished up with a big mess and had to reverse completely to the old hostname to get the admin-console working again.

thanks for the hints
