<p><i>Ctl_cyrusdb</i> is used to perform various
administrative operations on the Cyrus databases.</p>
<!-- INDENTATION -->
<p><i>Ctl_cyrusdb</i> reads its configuration options out of
the <i>imapd.conf</i>(5) file unless specified otherwise by
<b>-C</b>. The <i>configdirectory</i> option is used to
determine the default location of the Cyrus databases
(quotas.db, tls_sessions.db, deliver.db, statuschache.db,
annotations.db, mailboxes.db and ptclient/ptscache.db). If
any database is corrupted, cyrus-imapd will abnormally
terminate with information in the log.</p>

<p>Checkpoint and archive the databases. Changes to the
databases (with Berkley DB-Engine) which are part of
committed transactions are written to disk. In default
configuration Berkley DB-Engine is used for tls_sessions.db,
deliver.db, statuschache.db and ptclient/ptscache.db. Also,
a <i>hot</i> backup of the mailboxes.db, annotations.db and
quotas.db databases is made and inactive log files are
removed. Other files are not necessary, because they can be
recreated without any data loss. Backup is stored in
db.backup1 directory and older backup in db.backup2 (these
directories are rotated).</p>
