/opt/zimbra/bin/zmprov -m -l grr global grp zimbraDomainAdmins@domain.com +domainAdminZimletRights

Set Global Admin Rights and reset to Normal Rights

• Log into webAdminUI as global admin
• Set manager@domain.com as member of zimbraDomainAdmins@domain.com
• Set manager@domain.com as global admin
• Log out of webAdminUI
• Log into webAdminUI as manager@domain.com
• Log out of webAdminUI
• Log into webAdminUI as global admin
• Remove global admin for manager@domain.com
• Log out of webAdminUI
• Log into webAdminUI as manager@domain.com (might need to wait a couple of minutes - depends on server performance)

Domain Admin link when logged in as user

zmprov md <domain_name> zimbraWebClientAdminReference <domain_admin_site>

zmprov md mail.domain.com zimbraWebClientAdminReference https://admin.domain.com:7071/

Restart Zimbra mailbox service

zmmailboxdctl restart

Admin Console tabs and buttons missing

"Rights", "Global ACL" and "Account limits tab" missing? Log into CLi and run:

su - zimbra
zmzimletctl listZimlet all

Check that "com_zimbra_delegatedadmin" zimlet is deployed. I found that it was deployed, but was disabled on my LDAP server. I fixed this by running:

zmzimletctl enable com_zimbra_delegatedadmin

Viola... All my missing admin buttons and tabs appeared.

Backups

• Configure e-mail settings for backup reports:

zmprov gacf | grep -i backup
zmprov mcf zimbraBackupReportEmailRecipients e@mail.address
zmprov mcf zimbraBackupReportEmailSender e@mail.address
zmprov mcf zimbraBackupReportEmailSubjectPrefix Subject of message

• Display current backup schedule:

zmschedulebackup -q

• To display the schedules on one line as a command, so that they can be copied to a text file and saved to be used if the application needs to be restored.

zmschedulebackup -s

• To schedule the default full and incremental backup

zmschedulebackup -D

• To replace the existing schedule with a new schedule

zmschedulebackup -R f [“schedule”]

• To add an additional full backup to the existing schedule

zmschedulebackup -A f [“schedule”]

• To add an additional incremental backup to the existing schedule

zmschedulebackup -A i [“schedule”]

• Example:

zmschedulebackup -R f "0 1 * * 6" i "0 1 * * 0-5" d 14d "0 0 * * *"

Directing Users to the correct Change Password Page

• Set the zimbraChangePasswordURL attribute to the URL of your password change page. The Change Password link in the Preferences>General tab goes to this URL and when passwords expire, users are sent to this page.

• This is changed from the zmprov CLI.

zmprov md exampledomain.com zimbraChangePasswordURL https://mail.exampledomain.com/h/changepass
