Migration • Migrate FOSS 8.8.15 to fresh new Zimbra 10 Network Edition,

Hello guys,

We are going to migrate our 8.8.15 FOSS Zimbra server to Zimbra 10 Network Edition.
In the past we migrated all of our FOSS servers to a clean environment and used the Zextras migration tool to migrate the data.
The reason we follow this path is that the original server isn't at risk and we have some time if needed to troubleshoot on the new server before we make the switch.

Since that route is not available anymore ( the Zextras migration tool ). What are the best options for this ?

I would preferably not mess / upgrade etc the current 8.8.15 server.

I've been reading up in the forums and there are some different options, since v10 is out for a while. With which migrations have you got good experience with ?

Regarding the optons :

- I have the rsync method. What I can do is install Zimbra 8.8.15 on the new environment, rsync the data, and than upgrade. I would rather have not have legacy 8.8.15 stuff on my server, but if this is the way. This is the way.
- or do an imapsync, as discussed here, viewtopic.php?p=310979#p310979 ,
- or.....

I'm open to any advice,

Thank you in advance,

Jack
