These errors are only shown on the client, yes? Is there any evidence of a failed connection in the access log?Correct, those 2 different contacting ldap error issues. I have searched for various things in the logs, but I havent read it line by line. I dont see "err=1", no fd errors, or "Not listening for new connections - too many fds open".
So, that means the error is happening *before* 389-ds gets a chance to accept on the connection.
Are there any routers, middlewares, firewalls, idp's etc between the client/ldap server? Load balancer?
We encountered a similar issue recently with another load test, where the load tester wasn't averaging it's connections, it would launch 10,000 connections at once and hope they all worked. With your load test, is it actually spreading it's connections out, or is it bursting?It's a ramp up of 500 users logging in and starting their searches, the initial ramp up is 60 seconds, but the searches and login/logouts is over 6 minutes. I just spliced up the logs to see what that first minute was like:Peak Concurrent Connections: 689
Total Operations: 18770
Total Results: 18769
Overall Performance: 100.0%
Total Connections: 2603 (21.66/sec) (1299.40/min)
- LDAP Connections: 2603 (21.66/sec) (1299.40/min)
- LDAPI Connections: 0 (0.00/sec) (0.00/min)
- LDAPS Connections: 0 (0.00/sec) (0.00/min)
- StartTLS Extended Ops: 2571 (21.39/sec) (1283.42/min)
Searches: 13596 (113.12/sec) (6787.01/min)
Modifications: 0 (0.00/sec) (0.00/min)
Adds: 0 (0.00/sec) (0.00/min)
Deletes: 0 (0.00/sec) (0.00/min)
Mod RDNs: 0 (0.00/sec) (0.00/min)
Compares: 0 (0.00/sec) (0.00/min)
Binds: 2603 (21.66/sec) (1299.40/min)
With these settings below, the test results are in, they still get 1 ldap error per test.
Any chance that you can get a tcp-dump over the 6 minutes and try to find the syn without ack around the time of the failure ?
We still don't know what the cause *is* so just tweaking values won't help. We need to know what layer is triggering the error before we make changes.
net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog = 8192
net.core.somaxconn = 8192
Suggestions ? Should I bump these up more ?
Reading these numbers, this doesn't look like the server should be under any stress at all - I have tested with 2cpu / 4gb ram and can easily get 10,000 simultaneous connections launched and accepted by 389-ds.
My thinking at this point is there is something in between the client and 389 that is not coping.
