Re: Rolling upgrades

I posted a response in the forums to a similar question. We are going to be migrating from physical hosts running ZCS 7.1.3 to using the 8.0 Appliance on VMware and I am considering doing something like what I posted here...

...but I'm waiting to see if the "rolling upgrade/migration" is a supported method or if I should plan some other way to do it. I don't know that anyone has tried it yet, that may be why there's not a lot of info about it out there.

Hey Folks,

I was just curious if anyone has perform rolling upgrade to Zimbra 8 yet. And if you have if you are willing to share how you did it. I ask because of the lack of up to date documentation on the Zimbra Wiki and because the document does not seem to exist from Zimbra documentation page. They have a bug in to update the documentation on the wiki but so far I am the only one that has voted on it :)
