Multi Server Install

[rrojas]

Hi,

Can i install one server with all componentes and then, in teh future, if i need more capacity. split the server functions in 3 servers (mta, store and ldap)? Or, i need almost 2 initial servers(ldap and mta)?

The store and mysql.server will need to remain on the core zimbra server. For example, if you set it up on server A, you will need to keep it on server A.

Now, you can change LDAP and MTA in the future if you need to. For LDAP, You'll need to export your LDAP db, and migrate it to the new server and change all of the configs, but it can be done.

OK. so , it's easier to install on server with ldap and all the other functions in a second server. Based on your post, i think that's simple add mta's and more stores server rather than the ldap...
