Re: [suse-security] Cyrus IMAP Backup Hints?

I have some questions concerning the backup of a cyrus imap server: Are there better solutions? There must be, hm?

Have a look at "lvcreate -s". Stop imap, create the snapshot, restart imap, make the backup from the snapshot and then remove the snapshot. It'll take a special partition (with a standard filesystem). Best to run this when there are little imap updates though. -- Regards, Peter
