Cyrus-IMAPD Hot Standby Configuration

[Helmut Weigel]

Hi,

we're currently running a mailsystem with postfix and cyrus imapd
with about 37.000 mboxes on a single server.

For "HA" purposes (Hot Standby ist ok) I'm looking for a way to 
replicate the mailboxes to a second server on the fly.

I found a description an the net 
http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/imapd/install-replication.html
but it's from 2005 

so my question is: Is this still the recommended way for doing
replication or is there something new?

we are using cyrus-imapd-2.2.8-1 release from Red Hat Enterprise 
Linux AS release 3 (Taroon Update)

Any hel / comments aprechiated

Thanks

Helmut Weigel
