Urgent Help required

[Kishore Potnuru]

Hi,

Our organisation has dependencies. There is a separate team/department who
creates the servers for us. When they build a new RHEL system, the system
will come up with various in-house softwares/tools. Those tools are not
compatible as of now with RHEL8. So, our organisation is going with redhat
7.7 only as of today which is supported for all in-house tools also.

This is my current situation:

1)

I have 2 test servers which are loaded with the following configuration.

=============
[root at devap01 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-*
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.10 (Santiago)

[root at devap01 ~]# dovecot --version
2.0.9

[root at devap01 ~]# postconf | grep mail_version
mail_version = 2.6.6
===============

So, I would like to install the max possible dovecot version on the above
servers for the testing purpose. I would like to implement the
HA/Resilience with those 2 servers.  I have shared storage and individual
storage in this environment. But I am seeing some issues with both of them
( I explained details in my first email thread). please see if you can help.


2)  If it is successful, I will get two RHEL 7.7 servers to implement
the same in LIVE environment for HA/Resilience.


First I am going with compatibility issues to resolve in my environment.
Once that is resolved, I will go with HA/Resilience implementation.

Please let me know if you need any more details.

Thanks & Regards,
Kishore Potnuru
