[[Category:MPOnline]] ==Training Zimbra to Zimbra Migration Part 1. Dated 12 Feb 2022 - Tetra Support Staff - Biswajit Banerjee== {{#ev:youtube|00Ms3pMwh5Y|640}} '''Video summary:''' [PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT - long stretches are silence/background music with no captioned speech] "Zimbra to Zimbra Migration Part 1" -- the opening installment of this migration series (continued in Parts 2 and 3), introducing the exercise as a large, potentially multi-day live deployment/migration for a client referred to as "Cisnet Global" and telling the team to keep other members available since it may run past a single session. Covers: connecting to VPN and checking the target server, discovering the current OS is too old for the intended Zimbra 8.8.15 package and that a matching newer VM needs to be created instead; attempting to provision a new VM of similar capacity in a different region (India) via the hosting provider's console, hitting a provisioning restriction, and having to raise a support ticket to get it resolved. The presenter frames the exercise explicitly as a teaching moment -- stressing that everyone on the team should understand how to build a Zimbra server end-to-end and the different available migration methods, since this knowledge underlies most support and migration work. As with Parts 2 and 3, this is real-time unscripted operational footage rather than a scripted walkthrough, with the actual hands-on Zimbra install/config work continuing in Part 2. ==Training Zimbra to Zimbra Migration Part 2. Dated 12 Feb 2022 - Tetra Support Staff - Biswajit Banerjee== {{#ev:youtube|9Htpow4hBNc|640}} '''Video summary:''' [PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT - long stretches are silence/background music with no captioned speech] "Zimbra to Zimbra Migration Part 2" -- a hands-on screen-recorded walkthrough of standing up a fresh Zimbra Open Source install on a newly provisioned server as the target of a mail migration. Covers: setting the new server's hostname, adding local DNS/resolver entries and confirming MX resolution before continuing (deliberately deferring firewall configuration until after the software downloads to avoid blocking outbound access); initially downloading the wrong Zimbra 8.8.15 build (a CentOS 6 package) and re-downloading the correct one; installing GNU `screen` so the lengthy Zimbra install can run as a detached background process; working through the interactive Zimbra installer's component selection (LDAP, logger, MTA, DNS cache disabled since only one DNS role is needed, SNMP, store, spell, proxy, etc.), an "unknown platform" override prompt caused by running on an OS release newer than the installer explicitly recognizes, and a missing-package dependency error that required checking the install log directly; and finally configuring the domain name and MX record during the installer's final steps, troubleshooting a DNS resolution error that came up at that point, before the install completes. Consistent with a real-time, unscripted troubleshooting session rather than a clean walkthrough -- multiple false starts and error recovery are part of the recorded content. ==Training Zimbra to Zimbra Migration Part 3. Dated 13 Feb 2022 - Tetra Support Staff - Biswajit Banerjee== {{#ev:youtube|nL1nQrR10kY|640}} '''Video summary:''' [VERY POOR TRANSCRIPT QUALITY - largely unusable ASR output, appears to mistake background audio/music for song lyrics throughout] "Zimbra to Zimbra Migration Part 3" -- continuing the same migration series as Part 2. The few legible fragments indicate this installment covers the data-import phase on the new server (started August 24 per one clear fragment), IMAP-based mail import for desktop clients, subscribing/selecting folders during import, configuring backup, and a step referencing the official Zimbra documentation about the LDAP admin password during setup (the fragment suggests being told NOT to reset it). Given the pattern is consistent with the other affected videos in this collection, this looks like a genuine audio-quality issue with the source recording rather than an isolated transcription failure -- worth flagging to whoever owns these recordings if an accurate summary is needed. ==Training Zimbra to Zimbra Migration Part Final4.
