[Dovecot] When does the replication run normally?
Hi,
I got my manual dsync finally working and can replicate mails by initiate it from comandline (doveadm sync -u mail@domain.dom -d), but it does not run by itself (per dovecot replication). When does dovecot invoke the replication normally?
Thanks in advance
Daniel
Daniel,
Not sure if you had any response.
There are 2 types of replication. (I'm assuming you have setup some sort of replication using dsync and are using 2.2+ version of dovecot)
- Fast replication -- Only syncs new mails
- Full replication. -- Does a FULL sync, and validates the currently replicated mails.
The fast replication occurs whenever a mail arrives for a user.
The full replication occurs based on "replication_full_sync_interval" setting in your config. The default for "replication_full_sync_interval" is 24 Hrs. (2.2rc2+)
to check the status of replication use
doveadm replicator status '*' -- This will give replication stats for all the users. (do not do this if you have a lot of users :-) ).
-Thanks Vijay
PS: I'm not an expert on Dovecot. This is based on my personal experience.

Hey Vijay,
no I had no repsonese, so thank you very much for your reply. Iam still fighting with this problem.
I used the command to check my replication, but it confuses me a bit:
date Tue Mar 18 13:43:09 CET 2014
doveadm replicator status '*' username priority fast sync full sync failed john@domain.net none 04:05:23 04:05:23 - jack@domain.net none 04:05:23 04:05:23 -
Could u explain me pls what these times mean? Is that the sheduled time of the next run or the time of the last run?
Thanks in advance
Daniel
