  • Fixed a bug that could cause the "getItem" CLI command to fail when using a target different from the current Backup Path.
  • Fixed a bug that could cause tags not to be properly restored when importing a Zimbra 7.x dataset into Zimbra 8.x.
  • Logging has been improved to reduce backup messages on the mailbox.log file when deleting a mailbox.

HSM Plus

  • Fixed a logic loophole that caused HSM Plus to override Zimbra's default storage classes even when the module was unlicensed/disabled. This caused issues with the "zmhsm", "zmblobchk" and "zmmboxmove" commands, now those commands work properly if HSM+ is unlicensed or disabled, while if the module is licensed and enabled you can use the HSM+ equivalents, "zxsuite hsm doMoveBlobs" and "zxsuite hsm doCheckBlobs".

  • The S3 caching engine has been optimized to remove a delay that was briefly affecting performances right after lowering the cache value.

Admin Plus

  • Fixed a bug that could cause an error when setting a quota value to "Unlimited" in Delegated Admins and Domain Limits.
  • Delegated admins can now see Alias Domain information for the domains they manage.

  • Fixed a bug that could cause tags with numeric names not to be properly imported when migrating from Zimbra 7.x to Zimbra 8.x

  • Fixed a harmless bug that could cause "ping" command responses to have duplicate http headers.
