[Linux-cluster] where should i look for an answer (postfix on gfs)

Hi

I have 2-node postfix mail cluster and I didn't mount /var/spool/postfix on
the storage though /var/spool/mail. If fail-over has occurred, manually cp
queues to the other node and $ postsuper -r ALL - Of course I may write a
script to cp and do the postsuper.  

Hope this is help and keep me posted if you found a solution.
