We here at the University of Florida are running a good sized cyrus murder setup. We have 10 cyrus v.2.2.12 backends with 9 cyrus v2.2.12 frontends and a dedicated mupdate master running v2.2.12. We are now in the planning phase of moving to the cyrus v2.3 branch. We will be installing all v.2.3.7 nodes since that is what is the latest available in RHEL 5.3. We would like to upgrade just the frontends and mupdate first since we are redesigning our backend's storage infrastructure. Later on we plan on upgrading the backends to v2.3 with replication. Can this be done? Is it safe to run v2.3 frontends and mupdate while keeping v.2.2 backends? Should we leave mupdate at v2.2 and upgrade just the frontends to v2.3? Are there specific versions of cyrus to avoid in this situation? Has anyone actually done this before? Any insights are welcomed. Thanks in advance. -- Eli Ben-Shoshan ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
