Great to hear you are upgrading to a recent version.

Several days seems excessive, though 240Gb... You are able to stop it at anytime and continue. The current dbmail-util -m limit has a default migration of 10000 which may help with confidence that something is happening, not sure about 3.1.17 the limit may have been added after.

I'm running 3.2.3 here with a few important bug-fixes that may still be in github, though the kind people at FreeBSD have included them in their ports.

You should still have access to your emails and be able to have new ones delivered without issue. The migration updates header fields so the sooner the migration completes the better.

We have a server that has been running good for a very long time. We have new hardware and I am tasked with the migration. I have done several test migrations.

Is there a version that is recommended?

dumped the 240G database then imported it to the new server.

Then ran:

2_2-3_0.pgsql
and
3_0_2-3_1_0.psql

then ran 3.1.17 dbmail-util -ay

It has been running for several days now. Is this a sign of a problem or just a very large DB? Do I need to do anything before I run 3_0_2-3_1_0.pgsql

Would it be better to go to 3.2.3? and if I did would I just do:

2_2-3_0.pgsql
and
3_0_2-3_1_0.psql

and then run dbmail-util -ay

or do I need to run the scripts in the postgresql/upgrades folder also? Its automatic after 3.1?

Any help is appreciated.
