It should eventually wind down once all the problems are fixed. Of course if it does not happen, you can always run force-resync for the problem users.

Hi,

we upgraded our servers from version 2.2.13 to 2.2.27. After the upgrade we notice a 10x increase in traffic with the nfs storage an errors like this in the logfile:

Nov 12 09:48:16 mail dovecot: imap(...): Error: Corrupted index cache file /.../dovecot.index.cache: invalid record size
Nov 12 09:48:16 mail dovecot: imap(...): Error: unlink(/.../dovecot.index.cache) failed: No such file or directory (in mail-cache.c:29)
Nov 12 09:48:16 mail dovecot: imap(...): Error: Corrupted index cache file /.../dovecot.index.cache: invalid record size
Nov 12 09:48:16 mail dovecot: imap(...): Error: Broken file /.../dovecot-uidlist line 8: Invalid data:

Is this normal ?

Will the activity wind down ?

Can we do something, like deleting the old dovecot.index* or dovecot-uidlist files from maildirs, or doing an doveadm force-refresh for all inboxes ?

Thank you !
