Cyrus being restarted / sync server abending, apparently causes it to leave sub dirs in the 'sync.' dirs containing hard links to messages. They currently sum to 40k+ links on one of my replicas :-( . I noticed them during an yet unsuccessful attempt to find out why message body inconsistencies now and then occur between master and replica. The 40k+ entries annoy me and I have a uneasy feeling that they may be involved in the creating the inconsistencies. So is there a way to clean up the sync. dirs -- can one just remove the sub dirs / hard links while the sync server is down? -- Michael ------------------------ The inconsistencies seem to arise when a user delete a message, thereby copying it to a trash folder. Now and then, this action on the replica nukes a message file owned by another user on the same cyrus partition, so that the trash file and the two user mailbox files are now hardlinked together. Environment: 2.3.14 + FM patches as of 2009-03-31 on RHEL 5.3/x86_64.
