about the replication

[Rudy Gevaert]

Hi,

The past week I finally set my mind to make some scripts to check if a 
mailbox on the master was the same as on the replica.

My back-ends started running 2.3.7 and I upgraded to 2.3.10 some time ago.

I ran my script last night on one of the back-ends.  This one has 20928 
mailboxes.  And 1067 are not in sync.  From those, 897 users didn't have 
all their mailboxes replicated to the replica.  The others had the same 
folder count, but one or more messages were not the same (or weren't there).

To check if the folder count was the same I just counted the folders on 
the master and the replica.  To see if the messages were the same, I 
used the GUID of each mail message.

So, if you are using replication, you should really have a look at it, 
if you have haven't started already :)

Also, I would really like to see the GUID commands taken up in upstream! 
  Thanks to fastmail.fm for hacking that into cyrus and releasing there 
patches.

Rudy
