I read the documentation on replication and am interested in trying
it. I have several servers that run a single domain, but are using
virtdomain anyway. I would like to have one virtdomain replica server
that serves as a hot spare to all of these servers. In other words
server A would replicate domain A mailboxes to the replica and server
B would replicate domain B to the replica. If server A fails then I
could bring up the replica server for domain A but not domain B (just
by not pointing domain B to the replica server). Is this possible?
We typically run with half the accounts on a given server as masters and
the other half as replicas to reduce fallout from a single server failing.
We don't use virtual domains. I'm afraid I don't know if the code in 2.3
supports virtual domains. Ken?
I haven't tried it, but I've done nothing to purposely break replication
of virtdomains.
Note that the code in CVS does NOT yet allow load balancing the
mailboxes across servers as David's does. Shared mailboxes makes this a
more difficult nut to crack.
