Hi Lars,

I'm running a qmail mail server inside a vserver and it works great using fakeinit so daemontools will work.

I want to replicate the vserver, but since qmails queue is depending on the filesystem I guess the queue itself can't be replicated to another root server?

Does anyone on this list have experience with replicating qmails queue inside a vserver?

One way I think is the only way is to _not_ replicate the queue at all, and in case of failure rebuild the queue on the other server. And pull out stuck messages in the old queue manually.

Or is it possible to maintain how the exact same file system look in a replicated vserver? Maybe by using xid tagging (quota)?
I should say that I don't know very much of the file system inside a vserver yet :)


I am running qmail inside a vServer and use "drbd" to mirror the harddisk. Together with heartbeat this is a real failover service :)

I am currently in the setup proceedure, so I cant really tell you if it is working but first tests indicate this...

Oliver
