My last thing to do prior to converting to production is a backup strategy. I have been doing this with tar something like:
tar -C /var/lib -czf lib-<date>.tar.gz imap tar -C /var/spool -czf spool-<date>.tar.gz imap tar -cf cyrus-<date>.tar This is producing a pretty big file(s): lib-<date>.tar.gz -> 2.2M spool-<date>.tar.gz -> 11.0M and ultimately cyrus-<date>.tar -> 13.5M and I was thinking maybe there is a better way that someone else has come up with. Anyone doing backups a different way?
