<p>iRedMail will store configrations in file iRedMail-x.y.z/config during
installation, and ask you whether to use it for installation directly
or create a new one.</p>
<p>You can create a sample config file by executing iRedMail installer:</p>
<pre><code class="bash"># bash iRedMail.sh
</code></pre>
<p>After config wizard dialogs, you will find file <code>config</code> under iRedMail root
directory. For example, <code>/root/iRedMail-0.8.7/config</code>. it will ask whether to
start installation or not, you can cancel it if you want.</p>
<p>You can copy this config file to deploy as many servers as you want, change
the hard-coded passwords in it if you want.</p>
<p>How to deploy a new server with sample config file:</p>
<ul>
<li>Copy sample config file to new server, e.g. <code>/root/iRedMail-0.8.7/config</code>.</li>
<li>Execute iRedMail installer with shell variables:</li>
</ul>
<pre><code class="bash"># AUTO_USE_EXISTING_CONFIG_FILE=y \
AUTO_INSTALL_WITHOUT_CONFIRM=y \
AUTO_CLEANUP_REMOVE_SENDMAIL=y \
AUTO_CLEANUP_REMOVE_MOD_PYTHON=y \
AUTO_CLEANUP_REPLACE_FIREWALL_RULES=y \
AUTO_CLEANUP_RESTART_IPTABLES=y \
AUTO_CLEANUP_REPLACE_MYSQL_CONFIG=y \
AUTO_CLEANUP_RESTART_POSTFIX=n \
bash iRedMail.sh

<h2 id="sample-deployment">Sample Deployment</h2>
<p>Here's how i preform iRedMail tests every day with VMware Fusion on Mac OS X,
all are completed automatically with a shell command.</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Install a clean, basic/minimal OS (Debian/CentOS/OpenBSD/FreeBSD, etc), set
proper hostname, configure network, then shut down this server and create a
VMware snapshot named <code>Latest</code>. The snapshot name will be used in my shell
script, it needs a snapshot name to reverse VM to the clean OS.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Revert VM to the latest snapshot (a clean, basic, minimal OS) with VMware
command line tool <code>vmrun</code>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Start this VM with <code>vmrun</code>, sleep 30 (or 60) seconds waiting for OS start up.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Detect network connection to this VM, if it's up, upload required files with <code>scp</code>:</p>
</li>
<li>the latest development edition of iRedMail</li>
<li>source tarballs required by iRedMail (Roundcube, iRedAdmin, iRedAPD, etc)</li>
<li>
<p>downloaded RHEL/CentOS/Debian/Ubuntu/OpenBSD binary packages, FreeBSD
distfiles etc. The most important one is a prepared iRedMail config file: iRedMail-x.y.z/config.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Create/Update iRedMail installation status file: iRedMail-x.y.z/.status
to skip downloading source tarballs, etc.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Perform installation via ssh like this:</p>
</li>
</ul>
<pre><code class="shell">ssh root@[SERVER] &quot;cd /root/iRedMail/ &amp;&amp; IREDMAIL_DEBUG='NO' AUTO_USE_EXISTING_CONFIG_FILE=y AUTO_INSTALL_WITHOUT_CONFIRM=y AUTO_CLEANUP_REMOVE_SENDMAIL=y AUTO_CLEANUP_REMOVE_MOD_PYTHON=y AUTO_CLEANUP_REPLACE_FIREWALL_RULES=y AUTO_CLEANUP_RESTART_IPTABLES=y AUTO_CLEANUP_REPLACE_MYSQL_CONFIG=y AUTO_CLEANUP_RESTART_POSTFIX=n bash iRedMail.sh&quot;
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>Perform after-installation tasks: upload downloaded ClamAV database, ..., reboot server.</li>
</ul>
<p>It should complete in 2-3 minutes (uploading binary packages takes most time),
then i got a working iRedMail server. I do this many times every day.</p>
<p>I have 5 prepared iRedMail config files for different backends: OpenLDAP,
MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, ldapd (OpenBSD only). i run my script with an
option to install iRedMail with specified backend like below, the script will
upload proper config file to server:</p>
<pre><code class="shell"># bash auto.centos7.sh ldap
# bash auto.centos7.sh mysql
# bash auto.centos7.sh pgsql
# bash auto.ubuntu14.sh mariadb
# bash auto.openbsd55.sh ldapd
</code></pre>
<p>Below is file of <code>auto.centos7.sh</code> mentioned above, it prepares VMware virtual
machine, then execute another script <code>c7.sh</code> to perform the real installation.</p>
<pre><code class="shell">#!/usr/bin/env bash
# File: auto.centos7.sh
[ X&quot;$#&quot; != X'1' ] &amp;&amp; echo 'No backend? ldap, mysql, pgsql' &amp;&amp; exit 255
export backend=&quot;${1}&quot;

export VM_HOSTNAME='c7'
export VM=&quot;/Users/zhb/vm.packages/vm/CentOS-7-x86_64.vmwarevm/CentOS-7-x86_64.vmx&quot;
echo &quot;* Revert to the latest snapshot.&quot;
${VMRUN} revertToSnapshot ${VM} Latest
echo &quot;* Start VM.&quot;
${VMRUN} start ${VM}
echo &quot;* Sleep 30 seconds to wait VM start up.&quot;
sleep 30
echo &quot;* Detect network status with ssh.&quot;
while :; do
ssh ${VM_USER_ROOT}@${VM_HOSTNAME} &quot;exit&quot;
if [ X&quot;$?&quot; == X'0' ]; then
break
else
sleep 5
fi
done
echo &quot;* Start testing iRedMail.&quot;
sh ${VM_HOSTNAME}.sh ${backend}
