Backups; For some reason the backup script I was using, which I found in the Wiki, would bring down the system and perform the backup fine, but could not reliably bring it back up. I would come back in the morning to find half of Zimbra's services failed to start, or did start but were not operating properly. (like the MTA, mail was not getting threw.) Since this machine is in production I'd rather not 'try' other backup methods and just wait till we go to Network edition, at which point we are looking at getting a different machine for that all-together.
As for my comment on clean install, I ment that when I brought the machine up in August, it was a clean install of the OS and zimbra, so nothing should be interfearing with it. Sorry, that was misleading. Thankfully no users or there mail appears to have been lost in this 4.5.9 issue. |
