Can the new mailserver already run and being used while the reconstruct is still running ?

[thom_schu@xxxxxx]

Hello,

I'm working on an upgrade from SLES12 + imapd 2.4.19 to Ubuntu 22.04 + imapd 3.4.5. The new mail-server  will run on new hardware.

While the old mail-server is still running, I made already some first rsyncs.

So the day I will finally switch from old to new, I shutdown the services on the old server and make a final rsync.

Then I will run a "reconstruct -V max".

Arccording to the docu, it can take days. So my question: Can the new mail-server run and completly used while reconstruct is running ?

thanks and regards

Thomas
