I'm not doing well with my Google-foo. I initially setup our first Cyrus-IMAPd system recently. I had a conceptual misunderstanding and thought that the config directory could be configured to hold the metadata. Actually, I thought it would happen by default. I don't know what I was thinking. Now that I have that sorted out in my head, and we are out of I/O bandwidth, I want to configure a metapartition-default on a new RAID1 and move the metadata to it. I haven't been able to find documentation that says if it is safe to add the metapartition directives to the config for an existing partition on a running system. What would be the proceedure for this? Something like?: * rsync the metapartition_files to the new metapartition-default * shut down cyrus-imapd * rsync the metapartition_files to the new metapartition-default * change the imapd.conf * remove the metapartition_files from partition-default * start cyrus-imapd I would like to do it without stopping cyrus-imapd, but I suspect that changing it on a running system was not planned for in the feature. I would be most happy to be wrong.
