Hi, does anybody know, how ctl_cyrusdb works (how it should be used)? I've seen ctl_cyrusdb's man pages, but there is just few notes and nothing more. I don't need to use ctl_cyrusdb now, but I'd like to know more about this. I assume ctl_cyrusdb is used (in /etc/cyrus.conf) to generate "checkpoints" of the Cyrus databases, presumably those in /var/lib/imap. The information that man does not provide is 1) Listing of database files "checkpointed" 2) Description of checkpoint format a) "ls /var/lib/imap" suggest two sets of checkpoint database are retained. b) Description of checkpoint configuration options, if any, to control checkpoint sets 3) Checkpointed image backup requirements 4) Appropriate cross-references to utilities used to determine database corrution requiring recovery procedure 5) Appropriate recovery procedure when invocation with "-r" vs. "-r -x' is required. It'll be really appreciated if someone could explain at least some of these questions. Thanks question for developers: Could you please extend this man page?
