moving to new cyrus

[Maria McKinley]

Hello,

My mail server is ancient, both in hardware and software, so I am 
working on updating it. I started with a fresh install on a new machine. 
My /var/cyrus directory is on its own hard drive. I copied everything 
from the /var/cyrus directory onto a separate hard drive, which I 
mounted on the new machine for testing purposes. My plan was to get 
things working, shut down the old server, move the up-to-date /var/cyrus 
drive to the new machine and go from there. Unfortunately, while 
installing/updating to newest cyrus on the new machine I noticed lines 
like this:

Creating/updating cyrus control directories in /var/cyrus/data...
Creating/updating partition spool /var/cyrus/mail...

which leads me to believe there are changes that have been made to 
/var/cyrus that will not be on my old /var/cyrus hard drive. Any ideas 
on how to handle this?

My old cyrus is

ii  cyrus-admin-2.2                   2.2.13-13                  Cyrus 
mail system (administration tools)
ii  cyrus-clients-2.2                 2.2.13-13+b2               Cyrus 
mail system (test clients)
ii  cyrus-common-2.2                  2.2.13-13                  Cyrus 
mail system (common files)
ii  cyrus-imapd-2.2                   2.2.13-13                  Cyrus 
mail system (IMAP support)
ii  libcyrus-imap-perl22              2.2.13-14+b1 
Interface to Cyrus imap client imclient library

and the new one:
