Problem

Error "Too many ADMIN sessions" is seen when using zmmailbox command and mailbox.log shows following entry :

Solution

By default, 5 admin SOAP sessions are configured for a single user on ZCS server and its controlled by the local config key "zimbra_session_limit_admin".

With the help of following steps, the current local config key value can be seen and updated :

1). Command to check :-

zmlocalconfig zimbra_session_limit_admin 

2). Command to update :-

zmlocalconfig -e zimbra_session_limit_admin=10   
zmmailboxdctl restart
