Quoting Tod Pike <tgp@xxxxxxxxxx>:
Hello:
I am running a 3.X cyrus setup with master/slave replication. I
have discovered that one of my replicas has gotten out of sync with
it's master server, not in the sense that the mailboxes are not
replicated, but that the mailboxes live in different partitions on
the master and the slave.
As an example, if I do a "ctl_mboxlist -d user.<foo>" on the master,
I get back that it lives on partition 2. If I do the same thing on
the replica, I get back that it lives on partition 4. What happened
at one time is that the user got moved from partition 4 to partition 2
and it worked correctly on the master, but never happened on the slave.
BTW, the mupdate server agrees with the master, not the replica.
Make sure that the same partitions are configured on master and replica
As an experiment, I tried to do a "ctl_mboxlist -m -w" on the
replica server, but it returns "couldn't get mupdate server name" since
it doesn't even know about the mupdate server in it's role as a replica.
Cyrus replication is not integrated with the murder setup.
A replica MUST NOT have a mupdate server configured.
What are my options here - I know that I could just copy the
mailboxes.db file from the master to the replica, then manually move
the mailboxes that are in the "wrong" place to the "right" place, but
this seems a little drastic. Any way I can just tell the replica to
update the location of the mailbox one at a time?
Have you tried calling sync_client on the master with the "-u" option
(See sync_client manpage for details https://linux.die.net/man/8/sync_client)
This should sync all mailboxes, of the user and move the mailboxes to the
correct partition.
If this fails check for errors in the logs.
An other option would be to move the mailboxes to the correct partition with
cyradm using the renamemailbox command
renamemailbox oldname newname [partition]
