Chapter 2. Multiserver Installation

This chapter serves as an installation guide for Zimbra in a multiserver environment.

The topics covered in this chapter are as follows:

  • Knowing the prerequisites for Zimbra multiserver installation
  • Preparing the environment
  • Downloading Zimbra (we will take a version of Ubuntu as an example)
  • Installing and configuring different Zimbra servers
  • Post-install configuration
  • Running Zimbra for the first time

By the end of this chapter, the user should have a running Zimbra server in a multiserver environment.

The prerequisites for Zimbra

For Zimbra multiserver installation, we need the same prerequisites as those in Chapter 1, Single Server Installation.

In addition, in the specific context of multiserver setup, we need to perform the following actions:

  • The system clocks should be synced on all servers. We will explain how to do that later in this chapter.
  • Configure the file /etc/resolv.conf on all servers to point at the server on which we installed the bind (it can be installed on any Zimbra server or on a separate server). We will explain this point in detail later.
