Cyrus stores important information in different paths.
See imapd.conf manpage:

configdirectory:
<configdirectory>/mailboxes.db: list of all mailboxes and acls
<configdirectory>/annotations.db: mailbox Annotations
<configdirectory>/deliver.db: Information about recent delivered mails
                   (needed for duplicate delivery suppression and  
sieve vacation)
<configdirectory>/user/**: subscribed folders and seen information
<configdirectory>/quota/**: Quota-Information

sievedir: Sieve Scripts


Depending on the configured partitions one ore more

partition-<name>: Mailboxes/Mails of the users on the partition <name>

and optional

metapartition-<name>: Meta-Files of the Mailboxes on the partition <name>
archivepartition-<name>: Old Mails of Mailboxes on the partition <name>


You can use cyrus-replication to transfer all user/information to the
second server and keep them in sync.
