Hi,

I've got questions regarding the procedure you describe. I'm trying to wrap my head around the various possible approaches to replication and clustering.

migration process from 2.3 to 2.4 took ~ one year for our installation.
we converted ~200Tb of users data.
first step we did - spread data on many nodes using cyrus replication.

The official documentation for replication seems to be this one:

<http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/docs/cyrus-imapd/2.4.0/install-replication.php>

The way I read that, replication is all or nothing. So did each of the nodes have the whole 200 TB? If not, how did you achieve that? Did you have a murder with multiple backends to begin with?

next we started converting nodes one by one at weekends nights to
minimize IO load generated by users.

How does replication work across Cyrus versions? I assume it wouldn't have been possible to create a new 2.4 replica from an existing 2.3 master?

Thanks, Sebastian
