Hi.

Is anyone backing up Zimbra on-the-fly? I don't think taking server 
offline for pure file-based copy is a modern method of doing things. 
Neither do I want to use zmbackup, because as I understand, that dumps 
all the mailboxes (which are on disk anyway) to separate files which 
would just waste so much space.

I'm currently backing up the whole /opt/zimbra and I've already managed 
to restore a user's calendar by restoring MySQL-files onto another 
server and starting MySQL from them. I guess I was lucky. And there's 
also possibility to restore users' .msg files to submit them into Zimbra 
server again. So I don't see much problem here..

Anyway, I wonder what is there to backup anyway? Store, MySQL, LDAP, ... 
something more?
