Re: Tutorial on how to backup/restore cyrus
Hi Leon, There is (one of many) way(s) how you can perfom a backup: This script is only for the mailboxes (/var/spool/mail/imap in my case) and the files in /var/imap (for example: mailboxes.db) script #/bin/bash #first do an unstable copy (just to reduce the downtime of cyrus later) tmplog=/root/backupdir/tmpimaplog echo start backup of imap... $tmplog 21 echo rsync of /var/imap $tmplog 21 rsync -a --delete /var/imap /raid/mail_backup/tmpstore/varimap/ \ $tmplog 21 echo rsync of /raid/mail/imap $tmplog 21 rsync -a --delete /var/spool/mail/imap \ /raid/mail_backup/tmpstore/varspoolimap/ $tmplog 21 #now we do an rsync to stabilize the backup #shut down cyrus echo stopping cyrus $tmplog 21 /usr/local/bin/cyrus stop $tmplog 21 #sync with rsync to get a 'stable' backup # rsync -a --delete /var/imap /raid/mail_backup/tmpstore/varimap/ $tmplog 21 rsync -a --delete /var/spool/mail/imap \ /raid/mail_backup/tmpstore/varspoolimap/ $tmplog 21 #start cyrus echo starting cyrus... $tmplog 21 /usr/local/bin/cyrus start $tmplog 21 #finally we move the whole temporary backup of the disk onto a tape: #(requires an own script) #do the rest... (like a normal backup, but with the archived paths in imap.list echo starting rest of backup... $tmplog 21 /root/backupdir/backup_imap echo ...done. $tmplog 21 # clean the temporary directory rm -Rf /raid/mail_backup/tmpstore/* /script I hope you can use it... If you have questions just feel free to ask. best regards, Vittorio [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello All, Could you please point me to some good tutorial/manual on how to backup and restore Cyrus DB and mailboxes.

Hi Leon, [EMAIL PROTECTED] schrieb: A) So if anyone have some scripts with the snapshot feature who can share them, it would be nice to see them here. B) Also any scripts with the minimal downtime for the cyrus are welcomed. C) Any snapshot techniques (on reiserfs) are also very interesting and I like to here them. in early June, there were several messages on this list with the subject backup without stopping the imap server? I haven't read them all but perhaps you find somethinb usefil in these mails.

I currently use kolab which uses cyrus/postfix/ldap. They have a pretty good overview on their wiki in maintence section. Http://wiki.kolab.org I'd start there...

Re: Where is imapd.conf option to direct postfix to /var/spool/imapd/user/mailbox?

Sorry, I think I took your subject line too literally; are you using the 'cyrus' service from master.cf or LMTP for mailbox delivery, or are you using maildrop, local or other direct-delivery service service? The '/b/' directory is part of the mailbox hashing, which is normal if configured as such with Cyrus. The problem your pop3 client is having is (probably) not related to that.
