Zimbra 8.7 Silent Install Answer Files

Take from https://github.com/jorgedlcruz/zimbra-automated-installation

This requires two files as Zimbra is not designed for unattended installation, sadly. So this is far more cumbersome than it should be.

In the above script, you will need to replace each occurrence of $1 with your server's FQDN. And each $3 with your Zimbra admin's password. The admin account on creation will be [email protected].

And then we need a keystroke file: /tmp/installZimbra-keystrokes

y
y
y
y
y
n
y
y
y
y
y
y
y

Now that we have our files, you can install Zimbra. Obviously you must download and extract first, and cd into the extracted directory. Once you have done so, this is the installation command.

./install.sh -s < /tmp/zcs/installZimbra-keystrokes

And then to apply the configuration when that is complete:

/opt/zimbra/libexec/zmsetup.pl -c /tmp/zcs/installZimbraScript

And finally you can start up your server:

su - zimbra -c 'zmcontrol restart'
