I'm using
openchangeclient --pf --fetch-items=Contact --folder
to extract the contacts database several times a day (using a cron-job)
from an M$ Exchange 2007 Server.
The resulting dump contains at the beginning the number of entries (see
below). When I compare this number with the number of data sets, (e.g. with
grep '^|==' <filename> |wc -l
), the numbers often differ. This indicates that not all data sets have
been exported. Sometimes, the file contains even more data sets than
indicated by the first line. Then, I see double entries. The problem is
more common during day time (supposedly when the server is busy), and
less frequent during night.
It seems that there is a synchronization issue, when the server is
internally updating and openchange tries to read the data from the
server at the same time.
This raises the following questions:
1) Are You aware of this issue ?
2) I'm using the above test to check for the consistency of the result.
Is there are better solution or workaround for this problem ?
Kind regards,
Alois
