Thank you, Casey,

have you seen the reply by Thierry about probable causes?

Subject: [389-users] Re: 389 DS memory growth


We’ve been experiencing similar memory growth. I’ve had to quadruple RAM on our 
ldap hosts, but things seem stable there. Still unsure what the cause is. Glad 
to hear at least that someone else is seeing the same issue, so I can perhaps 
rule out an environmental change.

Hello colleagues,
On March 22nd we updated the 389-ds-base.x86_64 and 389-ds-base-libs.x86_64 
packages on our eight RHEL 7.9 production servers from version 
1.3.10.2-17.el7_9 to version 1.3.11.1-1.el7_9.  We also updated the kernel from 
kernel 3.10.0-1160.80.1.el7.x86_64 to kernel-3.10.0-1160.88.1.el7.x86_64 during 
the same update.
Approximately 12 days later, on April 3rd, all the hosts started exhibiting 
memory growth issues whereby the “slapd” process was using over 90% of the 
available system memory of 32GB, which was NOT happening for a couple of years 
prior to applying any of the available package updates on the systems.

Two of the eight hosts act as Primaries (formerly referred to as masters), 
while 6 of the hosts act as read-only replicas.  Three of the read-only 
replicas are used by our authorization system while the other three read-only 
replicas are used by customer-based applications.

Currently we use system controls to restrict the memory usage.

My question is whether this is something that other users also experience, and 
what is the recommended way to stabilize the DS servers in this type of 
situation?
Thanks,
- Alex
