[vchkpw] DEAD THREAD RE: [vchkpw] switching database servers
Ok, I started it, I wish to kill it. All points well made, though a bit ruder than necessary. I'll compile against a hostname that is configured into /etc/hosts and life will be grand. Thank you. BTW, I'm disappointed nobody compared file read for looking up a sql server vs. file read for looking up hostname. Can't imagine that would be much different, and thus doesn't really gain you much in performance. Just a thought.

RE: Re: [vchkpw] switching database servers
Hi Andrew !! I guess You did not read the whole story :-) It's not about shutting down deliveries. It's not even about compiling vpopmail... It's a comparison of having a vpopmail SQL configfile vs. compiled in SQL config (vmysql.h) Please read the story, I'm tired... bye... > Original Message - > Date: 15-Feb-2003 05:00:47 +0100 > From: Andrew Kohlsmith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [vchkpw] switching database servers > > > 5 min * 60 sec/min = 300 sec > > 300 sec / .02 sec/delivery = 15000 deliveries > > Why on earth would you shut down delivery for the compile? > > time to make install: 30 seconds > 30 sec / .02 sec/delivery = 1500 deliveries > > that's one order of magnitude, assuming that you need the full 30 seconds to > do a shutdown/make install/startup.

Re: [vchkpw] switching database servers
> 5 min * 60 sec/min = 300 sec > 300 sec / .02 sec/delivery = 15000 deliveries Why on earth would you shut down delivery for the compile? time to make install: 30 seconds 30 sec / .02 sec/delivery = 1500 deliveries that's one order of magnitude, assuming that you need the full 30 seconds to do a shutdown/make install/startup. I would believe you could get this down by another order of magnitude with a simple script -- making your total deliveries on the order of 150-250. Speaking from experience on a mid-volume mail server (about a thousand deliveries per hour) -- qmail compensates perfectly. In my case I'm also running every message though spamc and procmail *and* an antivirus scan (Rav antivirus) -- You get a 1min load spike of about 22-30 which goes away within a minute and you're back down to normal levels. > What about all POP/IMAP connections ? > Many users gets maybe less than 10 emails a day but they > do POP their mailbox every 5 (or less) minutes !!! You schedule it during a normal maintenance window. Not many people are up and about at 4am. And also speaking from experience, people will get an error, go "hmm" and try again. By that time you're back up and nothing happens. And if you really needed to look like you were always up, you'd have already written a very quick and dirty pop/imap server which just replied "yup, password good, no messages" to any query. Regards, Andrew
RE: Re: [vchkpw] switching database servers
heh, yeah...
Let's say recompiling vpopmail takes 5 minutes.
5 min * 60 sec/min = 300 sec
300 sec / .02 sec/delivery = 15000 deliveries
on a hi-traffic mailserver 15000 deliveries
is maybe less than an HOUR
So, if you do not know where Your SQL is in one hour
then you propably need to check your routines and
plan everything from scratch :-)
In comparison it takes less than 10 sec to change the
record in /etc/hosts.
You could also have a cmdline switch in .qmail
"| /vdelivermail '' [EMAIL PROTECTED] sqlhost sqluser sqlpass"
which allows you to override the default sqlconf on
PER USER/DOMAIN BASIS if needed...
Or why not pass the config in ENVIRONMENT and just
restart qmail with the new config. time: less than 10 sec
What about all POP/IMAP connections ?
Many users gets maybe less than 10 emails a day but they
do POP their mailbox every 5 (or less) minutes !!!
## what I mean is waste is that I'm not movin around my
## SQL on a day to day basis so I think it's nothing but waste.
It's also true, which you effectively proved here, that
it is very easy to write the "read-sql-config" functionality
into vpopmail code so I guess the problem is solved now !!!
please submit a patch !
There is ofcourse other anvantage of having sql config
in a single text file instead of compiled-in but that's
another story.
regards, =d0Mi=
PS. one more thing.
The time it took to write this message is more than twice
the time it'd take to move the SQL server and recompile
vpopmail and that is definitely a waste :-)

RE: [vchkpw] switching database servers
a simple solution is just configure vpopmail to connect to a HOSTNAME (even if localhost). then the only thing you need to do is add a line to your /etc/hosts or modify your DNS To let vpopmail read a config file is nothing but waste =d0Mi= > Original Message - > Date: 14-Feb-2003 22:40:30 +0100 > From: Benjamin Tomhave <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: RE: [vchkpw] switching database servers > > What would it take for this to be a configurable parameter instead of a > compiled-in parameter?

RE: [vchkpw] switching database servers
That depends on how remote it is and how much traffic you expect. You might want to look into MySQL replication at a certain point. That way for most of your queries you can do them locally (on the box), and only upatable queries will make their way to the main server. That's what I do.. MySQL replication is quite simple to setup. And if you notice there are two entires in the mysql.h file, one for the read server and one for the update server. -Clayton -Original Message- From: Benjamin Tomhave [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, February 14, 2003 1:49 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [vchkpw] switching database servers Ok, this raises for me an interesting questionsshould vpopmail only ever use a local db?

Re: [vchkpw] switching database servers
perhaps, but still can use autdaemon without vpopmail become daemon if i remember sqwebmail using kind of this using memory as read and write is more faster than disk but it about easy and "not easy" On Fri, 14 Feb 2003 13:46:59 -0800 "Clayton Weise" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > That might be feasable.. if vpopmail ran as a daemon.

RE: [vchkpw] switching database servers
That might be feasable.. if vpopmail ran as a daemon. But vpopmail gets called on by qmail. So if vpopmail had a config file it could damper it's performance (on slower systems, quite heavily) because every single time vpopmail was run it would have to read that config file.

RE: [vchkpw] switching database servers
What would it take for this to be a configurable parameter instead of a compiled-in parameter? In other words, would it be possible to add a config file, read at startup, from, say vpopmail/etc or qmail/control or similar? It seems to me that this would make a lot more sense than requiring the server, user and password to be compiled into the program itself. > -Original Message- > From: Clayton Weise [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, February 14, 2003 1:47 PM > To: 'Benjamin Tomhave'; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: [vchkpw] switching database servers > > > Recompile.
