Cyrus via NFS
Hello, I have a Mail server with 6000 mailbox running in debian 5.0.4 with cyrus-imapd-2.2 (2.2.13-14+lenny3) I want move both the configdirectory and partition-default to a storage NetApp 2020 via NFS. In my linux I mount in fstab whith this nfs options: ( hard,intr,proto=tcp,_netdev ) Has anyone done this? Any recommendation or commentary, before move this to NFS ? Thanks, and sorry for my English I'm from Argentine. Agustin.

NFS3 or NFS4? Cyrus needs working File-Locking, which does not work with NFS3. I didn't test it with NFS4. Do you intend to run an active-active cluster? If not have a look at iscsi.

Re: Cyrus via NFS
Hello, I asked somebody from another french university. They use a NetApp, put evrything on it and it works perfectly. I stayed on SAN anyway, but I would have liked the snapshot and the facilities to restore mails...

Re: Cyrus via NFS
Hello, Thanks for the reply. I set noatime option and I'll try setting it to NFSv4 in order to avoid problems with File Locking So, anyone have experience with NetApp cyrus via NFSv4?

Re: Cyrus via NFS
There is a possibility of NFS here in our future. If someone uses cyrus with NFS any experience shared will be great.
