Create an organizational unit (OU)

zmprov createHABOrgUnit domain.com ZimbraOU

Create a group and assign an email address for each of the departments

  • Allgroups will belong to the same HAB OU.
  • Important to create the root node. This will be shown in the Add Book.
zmprov createHABGroup Zimbra ZimbraOU zimbra@domain.com
  
zmprov createHABGroup Production ZimbraOU production@domain.com
zmprov createHABGroup Testing ZimbraOU testing@domain.com
zmprov createHABGroup Development ZimbraOU development@domain.com
zmprov createHABGroup Support ZimbraOU support@domain.com

Each of these groups (except Zimbra) needs to be assigned a parent group to create a hierarchy

  • Zimbra group is the root - Go bottom up - Go from leaf to child to root.
zmprov addHABGroupMember production@domain.com development@domain.com
zmprov addHABGroupMember production@domain.com support@domain.com

zmprov addHABGroupMember zimbra@domain.com production@domain.com
zmprov addHABGroupMember zimbra@domain.com testing@domain.com

Add users to Groups

zmprov addHABGroupMember development@domain.com user1@domain.com
zmprov addHABGroupMember support@domain.com user2@domain.com

Specify the root organization for the HAB

  • Get Zimbra ID of the Root Node.
zmprov gdl zimbra@domain.com zimbraId
zmprov md 'domain.com' zimbraHierarchicalAddressBookRoot xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx (zimbraId)

Important

  • In a multiserver environment, all commands should be run on the Mailbox server. Below error will prompt if the command ran on the LDAP server.
[zimbra@testlabldap ~]$ zmprov createHABGroup Production ZimbraOU production@domain.com

ERROR: service.INVALID_REQUEST (invalid request: can only be used with SOAP)
  • Make sure the group email address should not present on the server else below error will prompt "some attributes not unique".
[zimbra@testlabmailbox ~]$ zmprov createHABGroup Production ZimbraOU production@domain.com

ERROR: ldap.INVALID_ATTR_VALUE (invalid attr value - unable to create entry:
ldap host=testlabldap:389: some attributes not unique)
  • Once you complete the HAB steps, a DL will be created with the email mentioned in the group email address.
