Hi gheist,<br />
<br />
Just to verify, that means I have to stop the zimbra services and than run &quot;cp /opt/zimbra /backup&quot; to make a full copy?<br />
<br />
How about checking the setup and configurations of zimbra? such as hostname, domain name? list of mailboxes? Should I look for zmlocalconfig?

This is using zimbra collaboration suite 6.0.6 64bit, in SUSE Linux Enterprise 11. What have to backup the zimbra, in order to restore it if needed? Should I have to jot down the domain name, hostname, password, certificate, local configuration, in case it needed to be restore? Is there any comprehensive way of backing it up?
