Manual Activation
Purpose
Use the license file you received from Zimbra to generate a new activation file.
Process
1. Upload the license file to the Zimbra server using a utility like WinSCP and enter:
su - zimbra zmlicense -i /path/to/license/file
2. Get the information required (fingerprint, activation ID, license ID and version) for the manual activation from the Admin Console at:
- Global Settings ⇒ License ⇒ Manually Activate License
3. Go to https://support.zimbra.com and log in, go to the license page. Enter the required information and download the .xml file.
4. Upload the .xml file to the Zimbra server and enter:
zmlicense -A /path/to/activation/file
5. Check for successful activation with:
zmlicense -t
Work Around If This Can't Be Done During An Upgrade/Install

option with ./install.sh
