For the first time today, I had policyd hang on two separate servers, at about the same time. As best I could tell, it simply was timing out on connections. Restarting postfix had no effect. A large number of other servers, sharing the same mysql database didn't have any trouble.
Unfortunately, it was crunch time, and I had to quickly restart the daemons, and couldn't spend a lot of time debugging this problem. If this happens again, what data can I gather that would help track down the trouble? And what about some sort of heartbeat function? Or has anyone done a script that can simulate the postfix transaction? Or perhaps I'll just watch the postfix logs for this happening again. I use a once-a- minute check to make sure other daemons like postfix and clamd are still running - something similar for policyd would go a long way towards making the overall system more reliable.
