Several of our master processes went away without any good reason! This was the first time. mail19/lmtp[31757]: unable to tell master 2: Broken pipe For the moments where it happened it was all at ~7:30 AM. Just at the same time we run cyr_expire! cyrus.conf: delprune cmd="/usr/cyrus-2.4.6/bin/cyr_expire -C /etc/cyrus-ugent/conf/mail15/imapd.conf -D 31 -E 8 -X 31" at=0730 I was not aware of the imapd.conf delayed_expung parameter! So it is still the default. Previously -D and -X was set to 7! I changed that exactly one week ago to 31. However, cyr_expire runs ok: Feb 9 07:33:37 cyrprd3 mail15/cyr_expire[32118]: Removed 0 deleted mailboxes Feb 9 07:33:37 cyrprd3 mail15/cyr_expire[32118]: duplicate_prune: pruning back 8 days Feb 9 07:33:44 cyrprd3 mail15/cyr_expire[32118]: duplicate_prune: purged 2108 out of 134761 entries -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Rudy Gevaert e-mail: Rudy.Gevaert@xxxxxxxx Directie ICT, Afdeling Infrastructuur Groep Systemen tel: +32 9 264 4750 Universiteit Gent fax: +32 9 264 4994 Krijgslaan 281, gebouw S9, 9000 Gent, Belgie www.UGent.be -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/
