Before I comment on this, I want to check the facts. This was a Quad P-II, and not a Quad P-4, right? Just checking. Not that it would make all that much difference. I'll have some comments to make regarding your experience with VM guests soon. FWIW, I just migrated a QMT from one VM guest to another, on the same host. The former ran nicely (and still does on another host). The new QMT VM is a pig. I'm not sure what the problem is yet. Top takes 10% of the cpu on the pig host, while on another guest w/ same kernel, top runs less than 1%. So somewhere I'm seeing a ~10x performance difference between 2 guests on the same host. It'll be interesting (to say the least) to find the reason why. There are some differences between the 3 guests, but not too many. I hope to nail it soon. I've determined that as long as the ram on the guest is less than 656M, the guest runs speedily. If it's over that, then performance degrades by a factor of 10. This threshold is not hard and fixed, as on another host the limit appeared to be 680M. I'm afraid to ask how you came to that strange number... I did see you mention that before somewhere but it was related to running on 32 bit. I'm running x64 host and guest and haven't seen anything like that. In fact my QMT guest was running on 4G for a while and after watching it, I saw it never really used more than a couple hundred meg. The rest went to cache. I just knocked it back to 1G a couple weeks ago and it seems to be just as happy and perky. This appears to be an issue with memory management (duh). This VM guest has vmware-tools installed, which does have a guest memory management component. Could be a bug in that code. I'll be doing more testing to try identify the culprit, and post findings on the wiki. I think that's a note worthy of the wiki. Most people don't understand that the tools do more than video drivers. I'll add that... The difference in performance is rather astounding, and counter intuitive in that *less* ram runs faster. I'm sure there's a logical explanation, but I don't yet know what it is. Haven't seen it in x64. Phil -- -Eric 'shubes'

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: squirrelmail/imap issue
Helmut, I recently ran into this problem with imap timing out. I don't use squirrelmail much, but I was getting timeouts using thunderbird when trying to send and receive from imap email accounts. I read a post on this list about timeouts when the number of imap processes reached a certain number. In my case, when I had the smtp timeouts, I would run from the command line # ps -ef | grep imapd | wc -l and it would always return 43 processes when I was having problems. 42 processes, everything ran fine. When I had 43 imapd processes running and experiencing issues, I would run this from the command line. # /usr/bin/killall -9 imapd this would kill all the current imapd processes and sending and receiving email resumed properly. I am running Centos4.8 and I haven't done an update for several months. Still running qmail-toaster-1.03-1.3.18. I also analyzed, checked, and repaired my vpopmail database but this did not solve this issue. So until I can figure out what is really causing this, I wrote a little script that runs from cron every 5 minutes and if there are more than 42 imapd processes running, it kills them. Here is the script if you wish to use it. -- snip --- DT=`date` KILLIT="/usr/bin/killall -9 imapd" PID=`ps -ef | grep imapd | wc -l` if [ $PID -gt 42 ] then #echo "too high" echo $DT /oper/kill.log echo $PID /oper/kill.log $KILLIT /dev/null 21 fi - snip - Hope this helps until a permanent solution is found. Dave Helmut Fritz wrote: Jake, I am pretty sure it is not a dns issue. This only happens occasionally, and not all the time. The DNS server is hosted by the same machine, and I run the server and zones. No changes, so nothing to look for there. But maybe. If it happens again I will be sure to check the load on the server, but this machine never goes above 10% utilization. I will take a more holistic look at this next time it happens. Thx.

This threshold is not hard and fixed, as on another host the limit appeared to be 680M. I'm afraid to ask how you came to that strange number... Binary sort - splitting the difference between 2 values (768 and 640 initially) and testing each one. It's real easy to see when there's a problem. 'top' takes 30-40% of cpu initially, then settles in at ~10%. When top takes that much cpu, you know you have a problem. ;) I did see you mention that before somewhere but it was related to running on 32 bit. Yeah, I made a note on the wiki about a 896M ceiling above which there was a slight performance hit. I'm not sure which page I saw that on, but it's probably somewhere in the reference links. What I was seeing was not at all slight! I'm running x64 host and guest and haven't seen anything like that. In fact my QMT guest was running on 4G for a while and after watching it, I saw it never really used more than a couple hundred meg. The rest went to cache. I just knocked it back to 1G a couple weeks ago and it seems to be just as happy and perky. Yeah, QMT doesn't need all that much ram to run efficiently. I'm not sure what a good number is yet. It'll no doubt depend on how many messages need to be processed at once. Are you running VMware Tools? I've narrowed the problem down to the guest memory management module that's part of Tools. I installed it to get the vmxnet device which is supposed to perform better, and the guest memory manager was included. I'd like to use the e1000 virtual network device, as that's supposed to perform best and doesn't require tools. I haven't managed to get it to work yet though. I'll also be looking further at open-vm-tools. They have the open source components (which is most of) vmware-tools, and I think they're a little more up to date. If I can get what I need from there, that'll be the route I take. This appears to be an issue with memory management (duh). This VM guest has vmware-tools installed, which does have a guest memory management component. Could be a bug in that code.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Invalid recipient
That was it. Thanks eric. Warning to others using the replication toaster videos, Unless I did something wrong twice in a row dont run the unison scripts on a LIVE server, ie one with accounts already active. Better to setup replication on new empty servers. I have run the replication twice now and got the same problem, Unison over writes the files on the current server from the clone server. ie puts the original files with no domains , onto the live server. When I try it with two new server, run the unison scripts, then add users and domains , it works. Jake please correct me if I am wrong, Thanks Eric Shubert wrote: Yes, up to 50.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Optimizing a Server for VM
Glad to be of service. Here's something else you might find useful. I've attached a perl script I use in conjunction with spamdyke-stats to email me a daily report on yesterday's Spamdyke stats. I used to use a bash script when I had Spamdyke set to log to maillog. I couldn't figure out how to work with the qmail timestamps in a bash script (maybe it's simple and my inexperience is showing), so when I switched to logging to the qmail SMTP log I rewrote it in perl. I had to install Time::TAI64 and Date::Calc in order to get it to work.

Before, when the script runs in qmail log mode it only cuts off the timestamp and space. It leaves the spamdyke[pid}: , but still wants to process the log entry as if it starts with FILTER_. To the part that cuts off the timestamp I added code that cuts off the spamdyke[pid]: . I altered my toasters to log to the qmail smtp log so I would have test data. It's working in my tests against either qmail logs or maillog. Brent Gardner sa...@magicwisp.com wrote: Yes it does have plenty of spamdyke logs in it - I checked to make sure. Eric- Does the original script work for you? I went back to look at the original thread where I got this script: http://www.mail-archive.com/spamdyke-us...@spamdyke.org/msg01847.html The script was written by Felix Buenemann and later altered based on input from you and a few others so that it would work with qmail log files or maillog files. Spamdyke on my toasters logs to /var/log/maillog, so I don't have genuine qmail logs to run through the script. I took a maillog file, copied it to a temp file and converted it into what I think is the proper format based on your postings to the spamdyke-users list from this time period. Then I copied a bunch of data from a real qmail smtp log into the temp file and ran the whole mess through the script and it seemed to work OK with out tai64nlocal. It returned the same numbers as the original maillog file. It doesn't work if I pipe the temp file through tai64nlocal. Jack- After further review I don't think the script is designed to run with a qmail smtp log and tai64nlocal, but it should work just fine with a raw qmail smtp log file. The data you ran through from a maillog file produced numbers so low that it makes me wonder... Did the qmail smtp log that you ran through that produced a bunch of zeroes actually contain any Spamdyke log entries?

I don't use squirrelmail much, but I was getting timeouts using thunderbird when trying to send and receive from imap email accounts. I read a post on this list about timeouts when the number of imap processes reached a certain number. In my case, when I had the smtp timeouts, I would run from the command line # ps -ef | grep imapd | wc -l and it would always return 43 processes when I was having problems. 42 processes, everything ran fine. When I had 43 imapd processes running and experiencing issues, I would run this from the command line. # /usr/bin/killall -9 imapd this would kill all the current imapd processes and sending and receiving email resumed properly. I am running Centos4.8 and I haven't done an update for several months. Still running qmail-toaster-1.03-1.3.18. I also analyzed, checked, and repaired my vpopmail database but this did not solve this issue. So until I can figure out what is really causing this, I wrote a little script that runs from cron every 5 minutes and if there are more than 42 imapd processes running, it kills them. Here is the script if you wish to use it. -- snip --- DT=`date` KILLIT=/usr/bin/killall -9 imapd PID=`ps -ef | grep imapd | wc -l` if [ $PID -gt 42 ] then #echo too high echo $DT /oper/kill.log echo $PID /oper/kill.log $KILLIT /dev/null 21 fi - snip - Have you looked at the imapd config and ensured the MAXDAEMONS is set high enough? - Qmailtoaster is sponsored by Vickers Consulting Group (www.vickersconsulting.com http://www.vickersconsulting.com) Vickers Consulting Group offers Qmailtoaster support and installations.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Invalid recipient
What should /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts have in it exactly? I have two domains, and both of those are listed as well as mail.those.domains. That was it. Thanks eric. Warning to others using the replication toaster videos, Unless I did something wrong twice in a row dont run the unison scripts on a LIVE server, ie one with accounts already active. Better to setup replication on new empty servers. I have run the replication twice now and got the same problem, Unison over writes the files on the current server from the clone server. ie puts the original files with no domains , onto the live server. When I try it with two new server, run the unison scripts, then add users and domains , it works. Jake please correct me if I am wrong, Thanks Eric Shubert wrote: Yes, up to 50.

[qmailtoaster] Re: Invalid recipient
I wasn't very clear. I got the localhost.localdomain from a QMT I maintain, but it appears like that's not necessarily needed. I think you should have: magicwisp.com mail.magicwisp.com tanwichita.com I think you only need mail.magicwisp.com because some system services that generate emails (logwatch, cron) will use the host name (fqdn) as the originating (from) domain name. I handle these by creating mail.magicwisp.com as an alias domain for magicwisp.com. I expect there are other ways of doing this though. sa...@magicwisp.com wrote: OK - I have a total case of dumba$$ goin on today.
