Size of store directory increase after import use zmmailbox

[anhtung19x9]

Hello, I just seem a problem when migration Zimbra Open Source 8.8.10 to Zimbra NE 8.8.15. I used zmmailbox to export mailbox on the old mail server and import on the new server. Here is command:

for email in `cat /opt/zimbra/backup/new.txt`; do zmmailbox -z -m $email -t 0 getRestURL -u "https://127.0.0.1" '/?fmt=tgz' > $email.tgz |& tee -a export.log ; echo $email |& tee -a export.log ; done

for i in `cat /opt/zimbra/backup/user.txt`; do zmmailbox -z -m $i postRestURL -u "https://127.0.0.1" "/?fmt=tgz&resolve=skip" $i.tgz |& tee -a import.log ; echo "$i -- finished" |& tee -a import.log ; done

But, when I used zmmailbox to import mailbox on the new mail server, /opt/zimbra/store has size very high than /opt/zimbra/store of the old mail server. Here is more information:

The old mail server:

Code: Select all

 [root@mail zimbra]# du -h --max-depth=1 |sort -rh
937G    .
693G    ./store
167G    ./backup

12K     ./.ssh
8.0K    ./contrib

0       ./.cache

The New Mail Server:

Code: Select all

2.0T    ./store
2.0T    .
6.9G    ./db
5.5G    ./index
709M    ./common

16K     ./.ssh
8.0K    ./contrib
0       ./.saveconfig
0       ./fbqueue
0       ./.cache

I checked size of each mailbox user on both server. It's the same.

Already delete cache of zmmailbox with zmprov fc all


Can anyone help me? what problem here? May it a bug of Zimbra?

Sounds like you didn’t deduplicate the volume after the restore...

Hi,
If you follow the Zimbra's wiki at https://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Steps_To_R ... ZCS_Server, you can see at the end of wiki, on your new NE server:
zxsuite hsm getAllVolumes
zxsuite hsm doDeduplicate <volume name of the store>
