Hi all
I migrated from dovecot 1.2 to dovecot 2.0
Next step" migrate from maildir to mdbox"
I have being reading about migrating to mdbox as Timo pointed me out. But I have douths with namespace. I tried to use dsync and I got a error:
dsync(root): Fatal: Mail locations must use the same virtual mailbox hierarchy separator (specify separator for the default namespace)
I think It could be solved adding:
namespace { inbox = yes separator = / subscriptions = yes }
Actually I have no namespace definition. If i add namespace definition for start migrating, waht about my clients? will they be able to find there mail & mailboxes while I am migrating from maildir to mdbox?
Thanks.

We have an ocfs2 cluster compose of 4 Debian lenny serveurs wich have access to an ISCSI LUN we have create a partition on this Lun and formated this partition as OCFS2. 2 serveurs does mail delivery (SMTP) and the two other are pop/imap servers. The smtp servers use dovecot LDA to deliver to mailboxes. La version de dovecot is 1.2.13, ldirectord balance conexion to the servers(pop/pops/imap/imaps to the two imap/pop serveurs) (smtp to the two smtp servers).
With v2.0 I'd suggest using http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Director
mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%u/Maildir
Cluster filesystems don't seem to like Maildir much. With v2.0 you could use mdbox.
We are having severals problems from "cpu stuck for 61 seconds" to "too many connexion".
I don't know what either of those errors mean. In any case you should switch to high-performance login processes: http://wiki.dovecot.org/LoginProcess
