Installing an LDS standalone server

[rainer_d]

Hi,

I'm trying to install a standalone LDS-only node and use it in "offline" mode, according to the documentation.

https://zimbra.github.io/documentation/ ... ion_10.1.0

But when I run the "zmlicense --offlineActivationRequestCert.... command, I get:

invoke Connection refused, server: localhost

After some digging, I found it tries to connect to port 7071 - but there's no zimbra listening on that port because only the licensing-server was installed and I would assume there's nothing the soap-client can talk to.

I have an open ticket with Zimbra but it looks like it's working its way through L1-support.

How is this supposed to work?

Hello,
in my "offline" environment we had to do the following:

Allow TPC comunication from LDS server to all servers with ports 16700 and 8081.

Then try to "zmlicense -l --offlineActivationRequestCert"

and for the activation you can try "zmlicense -l -A /path/to/license/file"

We did this on a Zimbra 10.1.3 server environment with 1 LDS 2 LDAPS, 2 MTA, 2 PROXY and 3 MAILBOX and worked perfectly.

Let me know if you have any trouble while trying this.

I finally got it to work with the help of zimbra-support.

Thanks for sharing! That setup sounds solid. If anyone encounters issues, double-check firewall rules for TCP ports 16700 and 8081, ensure the license file path is correct, and verify connectivity between LDS and other servers. Let us know if help’s needed!
