Purpose

Explain the procedure for recovery from a failed zmmboxmove.

Resolution

  • Check if the 'zimbraMailHost' attribute for the user is still the same as the source, or has changed to the destination server. If it's the same as source, no further action is required.

If it has changed to the destination server and the move wasn't completed, simply change it back to the source:

zmprov ma user@example.com zimbraMailHost source.example.com

This is possible because even after a move is complete, Zimbra don't automatically purge the accounts.

  • If the move exited leaving the account in 'maintenance mode', we can use this:
zmsoap -z -t admin UnregisterMailboxMoveOutRequest/account @name={email} @dest={dest hostname}
