Quoting Karl Pielorz <kpielorz_...@tdx.co.uk>:
Ok, that's probably because the replica was restarting. However now
it's restarted - the master doesn't seem to be pushing any more data
to the replica :(
In the 'sync' directory I have an ever growing 'log' file - and
'log-33213' (which I presume is what was in use by the process that
failed - i.e. that matches the PID above).
How do I restart replication?
In cyrus.conf I have:
"
...
syncclient cmd="/usr/local/cyrus/bin/sync_client -r"
...
"
Can I just do:
"
su cyrus
/usr/local/cyrus/bin/sync_client -r
"
To restart that process? - It's not listed in 'ps ax | grep sync_client'.
Bevor you run "sync_client -r" you should run
sync_client -r -f /PATH_TO_SYNC_DIR/log-33213
to sync what was left form the old sync process and confirm that the exit
code is 0 (echo $?) than you can delete log-33213
The Sync_client will catch up if you miss syncing log-33213, but it can
lead to some errors if sync_client tries to sync some mailboxes that have
not been created on the replic.
