Default [SOLVED] Adding aditional disk space

I have Zimbra 5.0.11 installed on a 10 GB / Partition. I have added a bigger disk, in order to accomodate more users and mail.

All zimbra data and mailboxes is stored under /opt? If so, just moving everithing to a new bigger filesystem does the work?

Thanks for your support, zimbra is great !!!!!

If you have created a new volume then shutdown ZCS, back it up, remove /opt/zimbra, mount new FS to /opt/zimbra and then restore it.

Sumaraizing, the order of task should be:
** Create New disk volume (partitioning, formating)
** Shutdown zimbra and backup
** Mount new filesystem in /opt/zimbra
** restore from backup
** restart zimbra.

IMHO that should be okay ... just ensure the perms on /opt/zimbra are the same as before
