Hello,
I've noticed that the "missing changes" are due to some of the actions done
during the "blackout" are processed un "/var/lib/imap/sync" log and named
modified to log-PID.
It seems that rsync_client have not noticed that Replica is down and it process
some of them. Once it notice that replica is down continue login in "log" file.
When Replica comes back, sync_client process the changes from "log" without
problems, but we have miss some changes.
Is there any configuratio to avoid this situation?
Regards.

Subject: Problem recover replica
Date: Thu, 2 Feb 2012 13:11:24 +0100
Hello,
I'm trying to implement a master-replica cyrus environment and I'm getting some
issue that I'm not able to resolve. The scenario is the following:
Everything is working fine between Master & Replica until Replica goes down
(maintenance or whatever). Once is down, in master there are still connections
and modification. If I bring up Replica the changes made during the "blackout"
are no fully transmitted to it. Some of the are transmitted, but not all.
Which is the best way to resincronize the missing parts to Replica?
I was wordering to rsync imap folders (/var/spool/imap & /var/lib/imap), and It
works fine in my test environment, but in produccion it could be GB to
sincronize and I think this is not optimum.
Other option was "sync_client -l -u <all_user>" but I'm guessing that in
production I will have the same problem due to the amount of data to sincronize.
On the other hand, I have also doubts about how "sync_client -r" and
"sync_server" are initiated. In my test machines I should run manually them
each time I start cyrus-imapd, I though that it could be automatic one I start
the service cyrus-imapd, but it is not.
Thanks & Regards.
