[kmuralidharan]

Hi ,
i am running successfuly zimbra server in my network. But problem is not able
to get backup feature's in admin UI .
It's possible to get backup feature's in open source edition. i need to test it in open source edition after that we planed to buy the network standard edition

Check out the 60day Network Edition trial: http://www.zimbra.com/products/download_network.html

The Open Source Edition does not have hot backups:

(Most open source users have their own cold backup methods-and there are a few warm methods as well-some duplicate entire structures at the operating system or hardware level. Search the forums for some ideas if you wish to go that route.)

Hi zimbrain's ,

I downloaded network trial version and test it locally in my network. It's work's fine. But i need extend mailboxes 50 and above (50 to 200 maximum). One more thing is we are using zimbra version- 4.5.5 RHEL5_64 FOSS edition, we alreadymigrated mailboxes from existing mail server.now we want upgrade 4.5.5 FOSS to 4.5.6 Network std edition
In network trail version Admin UI , not showing all the restore option , showing only one user mailbox restore at once


what are the steps i followed i need urgently .


After getting extend mailbox license( trial) and we have planned upgrade 4.5.6 network
standard within this monthend. so hurryup please.....

thanks

You can apply the same principle just pretend your working on one system and not 2 systems: Network Edition Moving from Open Source to Network Edition ZCS - ZimbraWiki
