Hello list, I have a Debian sarge machine running postfix/cyrus21,
serving ~30 users with about 8000 daily emails. Until I set up a proper backup solution, I have this little
script that dumps all the users’ mailboxes: mail:~# cat /usr/sbin/dump #! /bin/sh # for USER in user1 user2 user3; do echo -n Dumping user.$USER ; /usr/sbin/cyrdump -v user.$USER > /home/public/cyrus/$USER.dump echo " OK" done mail:~# This script runs as user cyrus while cyrus is not running. I’ve also ran cyrreconstruct on all mailboxes to
insure that the indexes are intact. Files in /home/public/cyrus are created just fine, judging
by file sizes, I’d guess that all the data is properly dumped, however, I
get these messages in /var/log/mail/log: Oct 15 21:09:57 mail cyrus/dump[20191]: SQUAT failed to open
index file Oct 15 21:09:57 mail cyrus/dump[20191]: SQUAT failed Done some searching, found nothing helpful… Does anybody have a pointer for me? Another thing, is there a tool that imports these dump files
back into cyrus, creating missing mailboxes etc.? TIA Dudi Goldenberg KolCore Ltd. |
