ploeger · Post by **ploeger** » Wed Dec 17, 2014 12:05 pm

I believe, it's the usual way of running install.sh. It's written in detail in the release notes.

sir Jorge can I migrate the account from zimbra 8.5 to zimbra 8.6 using ZeXtras Migration Tool? Thanks for response!

jorgedlcruz · Post by **jorgedlcruz** » Fri Dec 19, 2014 3:28 am

Hi Reymund,

I've never use ZeXtras in my life, you need to ask in their Forums about the compatibility. You can upgrade from 8.5 to 8.6 without migrate any account, just and upgrade.

Best regards

Hi Reymund,
Please, could you write in the Migration Forum and tell us:

The result of your zmcontrol -v
Your actual OS and number of users
The target OS

Best regards
