Dear List,
I'm just wondering if I can run "reconstruct -r" for all mailboxes
while the system is running with mid load? I want to switch all
mailboxes to a new server with more space and without a big downtime.
I would do a sync (with replication) and after that, reroute
connections with iptabels to the new server and start a reconstruct on
it. Is it ok when users doing their imap-stuff while it's running? I
don't want to stop the server because a complete reconstruct takes
about 2 hours.
Ah, and one second (stupid) question: ATM I'm running replication
without UUID's. When I want to active it, I have to set the number on
the production server to (e.g.) 1 and on the backup server to 2? In
the docs it's not clear where to set the value (backend or replica).
Thanks,
SH
