Today I will try Dovecot Director for a setup using a Cluster Backend with GFS2 on rhel5, my question is if is Director stable for use in production for large sites, I know is mainly designed for NFS but I believe it will do the job also for a cluster filesystem like GFS2 and should solve the mail persistence problem with a node and locking issues. I plan to add a layer behind a load balancer to do the stuff, I will appreciate if you guys can point me to best practices in configuring the director, or how the thing works since is new for me, I have seen the example conf but I don't have clarity in some of the concepts and the wiki is empty. I use 2.0.6, thank's for a great job with dovecot. best regards, Aliet
i have 2 dovecot/postfix behind 2 loadbalancers keepalived maildir store on with ocfs2 on drbd , configs etc are on mysql-master-master replication ,no problems so far
you should not run into trouble with GFS2 using right config dovecot entries
never used the director if you mean this i.e http://www.sfr-fresh.com/unix/misc/dovecot-2.0.7.tar.gz:a/dovecot-2.0.7/doc/...
