>> How are the primary & secondary sharing data? 

SUN RAID 3320 configured as RAID 1+0 (stripe and mirror).  Primary/secondary 
IMAP servers mount (NFS) the raid as a shared memory storage device.  Each 
server connects via SCSI interface. Number of RAID disks depends on hardware 
but minimum is 4.  Following directories are accessed via mount point:

/var/imap
/var/spool/imap
/var/spool/sieve
/var/spool/postfix

Is it overkill to run reconstruct (and quota) after every failover
(which so far has never been due to cyrus being corrupted).
