Cyrus-Imapd on Linux-iSCSI

Hi,

Don't know if i can help as we have an different setting
cyrus-2.3.14, SLES 10, xfs on iSCSI and Skiplist instead of BDB.

Which Version of Cyrus did you use? Which DB was Corrupted?
Did this happen only once or on a regulare base?

> Does anyone have experience with such a setup?

With the differences mentioned above, this setups works fine.
