Best way to deply zimbra

[jorge]

Hi!

We are planning to migrate postfix/dovecot mail system to Zimbra by this way:

user goes to a virtual IP between 2 balancing servers with heartbeat & ldirector. Those balancing servers will balance 2 SMTP servers with shared virtual IP (active / active) and also will balance 2 identical mailboxes with DRBD and importing disk from NFS or a future ASN. This will give us HA and redundancy. And at the end 2 LDAP (master/slave)

Balancing servers and SMTP goes to DMZ and mailboxes/LDAPs will be on intranet.

As you see we want all redundant and I'm wondering if LDAP should be redundant too or with LDAP replica is enough. I suppose if master LDAP goes down then LDAP replica could be master with a few steps... :?

What do you think guys? Did you understand?

It's always good to have a backup replica.
