any ETA for 8 compatible version?

[MACscr]

To test out the beta, should we install it first and then upgrade to zimbra 8 or should we upgrade to zimbra 8 and then install the zextras beta?

ZeXtras 1.5.0 is installable ONLY on Zimbra 8.

Hello,

Can you please elaborate on the last statement? ZeXtras 1.5.0 BETA is and will remain only installable on zimbra 8, or the RC version will permit actual migration from older versions too?

Thanks.

This BETA version is installable ONLY on Zimbra 8.
Future stable 1.6 will be the official zextras package so it will be installable in every zimbra from 6.0.7 to last 8.X available.
This beta has Import-Export function disable so it's not usable to migrate from a 6 or 7 to 8 , future 1.5 and the stable 1.6 will.

When you say Import-Export, you are talking about actual system migrations. Not simply upgrading a system from 7 to 8 and installing the beta when 1.4.4 existed on the 7.x version first. Correct?

Hi MACscr, correct.
You can upgrade your zimbra 7 with zextras 1.4.X to zimbra 8 with zextras 1.5.0 .
The disabled functions are about migration, so you can't export from your zimbra 7 all data and import on the new zimbra 8 server. (this limit will be removed in next beta versions)
Please be sure your zimbra 8 is not a production machine before install the zextras beta version.

Best regards.

Oh, i understand the link is my thread. I was working with another user in #zimbra on freenode and a zimbra staff member when we confirmed the issue. I will update the other thread with that information.
