Earlier, I asked:
I would like to be able to run some sort of periodic health check to confirm that dsync is (or is not) running properly between the two sites, and alert me if dsync is failing or lagging excessively. Does anyone know of a tool to do this?
and Michael Grimm replied:
doveadm replicator status
If those numbers tend to become significantly larger than 0, then replication has issues. I do not use that for health checking . . . but used it once in a while when suspecting issues with replication.
Thanks.
As a followup question: If "doveadm replicator status" shows problems, are there any commands available to pinpoint exactly which request(s) is/are causing the problem(s)?
One of the sites I am administering, for example, has been reporting 1 "queued 'full resync' requests" and 9 "waiting 'failed' requests" for the past couple of days. But I have no idea how to resolve the issue. Suggestions welcome.
