Hello,
I'm trying to migrate from maildir++ to mdbox. The maildir++ is a
leftover of our previous setup (was using courier)
We have 3 virtuals servers for our +70000 accounts.
Now, I'd like to use mdbox, so I'm trying using dsync for that. I setup
a new virtual server, configured for mdbox.
1st, I tried a basic setup: I established a file with all my accounts
(taken from LDAP) and then I use this script :
FILENAME=$1
while read LINE
do
dsync -u $LINE backup $LINE@my_new_server
done < $FILENAME
But it's quite slow and dsync hangs.
So I tried another approach using multi threaded python.
Much faster (using all the cores), but dsync still hangs on some
accounts. After a certain time dsync exit with an error like that :
Panic: file dsync-worker-local.c: line 1688
(local_worker_save_msg_continue): assertion failed: (ret == -1)
dsync-remote(E072184L): Error: Raw backtrace:

[0x406cf9]
This is on a RUNNNING server.
My aim was to make some pass on the running server, then stop it and
make a last pass to finish the process.
Is dsync supposed to run only on a stopped server ?
Is my approach totally wrong ?
