Hi, Quoting Ram <ram@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
I am thinking of running mutiple instances of cyrus on a single machine with different sets of mailboxes. The Idea is that I would have two cyrus imap servers running on different machines and in case of any failure both instances will be run from the same machine ( obviously at a lower performance ) Is this a good idea ?
IMHO yes, we want to run this kind of setup in produktion soon. We have choosen to use Cyrus Murder to ease failover. Each server will run 1 frontend, 1 backend and 1 replication server in case of failure of one server the corresponding replic will become backend. If the failed server is back onlie we will use replication to bring the original backend up to date. We will use ClusterIP for loadbalancing the Frontend connections. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- M.Menge Tel.: (49) 7071/29-70316 Universität Tübingen Fax.: (49) 7071/29-5912Zentrum für Datenverarbeitung mail: michael.menge@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
