Zimbra Mail Server

[quangphuong68]

Good afternoon,

We have a Zimbra mail server in our company. Now we would like to remove some files and directories in our Zimbra mail server. How can we do that? Thank you very much for any helps.

Sincerely,

Do you have more details on your question?

What file you want to remove, and why? Insufficient disk space or another reason?

Removing files/or folder using same procedure with the way you delete the folder as usual : simply using remove command on Linux terminal, but why?

I am new to Zimbra and I did not work on any Zimbra mail server until recently. The reason we would like to remove files and directories on our Zimbra mail server because we would like to remove any files and directories which we do not want them on our Zimbra mail server any more, to increase our the storage of our Zimbra mail server. Please show me step by step so that I can follow them slowly because I am new to Zimbra mail server. Thank you very much for your helps.

By default, Zimbra store all of data on /opt/zimbra folder. Take care your backup for this folder (backup is mandatory to avoids any unwanted errors) and then try to investigating another folder.

Start your work by using this command to show your partition folder:

fdisk -l

and then

df -h

to show your disk schema, capacity and free space. Use du command to know the capacity of each folder. After that, you can remove unused folder (after look at the content) by using remove file/folder command (see rm command)

Hopefully can help your works.
