Migrating from 32 to 64 bits success story (NE 6.0.4):

On 32 bit system before backup i've just done full backup:

 zmbackup -f -a all -s servername

On 64 bit machine I did (as zimbra user):

 zmcontrol stop
 rm -rf /opt/zimbra/db/data/*
 /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmmyinit

Now copy backup from old system (32 bit) to /opt/zimbra/backup.

Then:

 zmrestoreldap -lbs 
 zmrestoreldap -lb <newest full backup> (from above's results)
 

I did not remember ldap password, so i just copied localconfig.xml from old system:

 cp /old/opt/zimbra/conf/localconfig.xml /opt/zimbra/conf/

Now restoring all data (as zimbra user):

 ldap start
 zmconvertctl start
 zmrestoreoffline -sys -a all -c -br -lb <label_from_above>

I fixed permissions just to be sure (as root):

 /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmfixperms
