[SOLVED] Server crashed, re-installing to new one, have issues!

[jpbuse]

My server crashed due to RAID issues. I have a full backup from last night which I am trying/planning to restore to a new zimbra install.

Following this restore guide but having issues when I run zmrestoreoffline because it says mailboxd is offline. Can't start it because it looks like it's complaining about LDAP credentials. I did import the LDAP from the backup, per the guide. I don't know what the LDAP password was from the crashed server so I simply reset it. Didn't seem to like that. Thinking I need to get that issue resolved then go from there.

Old and new servers are running 5.0.21 NE on CentOS 5.5 32bit.

Output from when I try to start zimbra...

Seems like I need to know my LDAP password from the crashed server which I don't know. Crashed server is crashed and not accessible at all. I do have a full backup from last night of all the user data and LDAP schema but I don't have access to what the LDAP password was.

Was able to get LDAP password from the localconfig.xml file in my full backup.

This guide has better info and details.

Yes, you'll definitely want to verify your passwords are set correctly. You'll find the configuration files saved in /opt/zimbra/backup/sessions/[full|incr]-*/sys.

Looks like I'm pretty much back in action here. The instructions found at Network Edition Disaster Recovery - Zimbra:: Wiki worked perfectly. I just need to deal w/ the SSL certs and few other config things.
