Problem

Remove old or non-working datasources from the GAL account.

Solution

  • Check and find out the exact datasource name to remove.
zmprov getDataSources {GAL-account-name}

Example:

zmprov getDataSources galsync@example.com
  • Now remove the datasource:
zmprov deleteDataSource {GAL-account-name} {datasource-name}

Example:

zmprov deleteDataSource galsync@example.com "DataSource-Name"


Additional Information

If an internal datasource is deleted by mistake, we can add it again and forcesync to fix autocomplete issues. In this type situation we need to use following commands to re-create the internal datasource:

zmgsautil addDataSource -a {GAL-account-name} -n {datasource-name} --domain {domain-name} -t zimbra -f {folder-name} -p {polling-interval}
zmgsautil forceSync -a {GAL-account-name} -n {datasource-name}

Example:

zmgsautil addDataSource -a galsync@example.com -n InternalGAL --domain example.com -t zimbra -f _InternalGAL -p 60m
zmgsautil forceSync -a galsync@example.com -n InternalGAL
