Folks, I'm in the midst of upgrading our cyrus imap servers. We've hit a snag that our testing did not reveal. The quota -f utility is doubling all of our users' actual usage. This seems to be reported several times on various places on the web. Running quota -f a second time seems to correct the issue. However, I wanted to track down the actual issue/bug here.
We are moving from RHEL 3 i386 with Cyrus version 2.2.12 to RHEL 5 x86_64 machines running cyrus version 2.3.14. We tar up the cyrus data store and move it to the new server, rebuild the DB from a dump from the old server, run reconstructs, and finally run quota -f. We are getting output below. user.cechafin.RESTORE.Drafts: quota root user.cechafin.RESTORE --> user.cechafin user.cechafin.RESTORE.Sent: quota root user.cechafin.RESTORE --> user.cechafin user.cechafin.RESTORE.Sent.2006: quota root user.cechafin.RESTORE --> user.cechafi user.cechafin.RESTORE.Sent.2007: quota root user.cechafin.RESTORE --> user.cechafin user.cechafin: usage was 33900479, now 33914622 user.mmorrow: usage was 152034181, now 105570337 user.vrtownse: usage was 9382963, now 9385921 user.wwang: usage was 203145147, now 203333738 user.aaardest: usage was 31204975, now 62409950 user.aaaskar: usage was 44789845, now 89579690 user.aaatiq: usage was 29105529, now 58211058 What's happening?
