This shouldn't be the case with 1.14+ and wasn't in my testing. Did you
remove the cache (really remove, not just expire with sss_cache) after
you upgraded from 1.13 to 1.14?

If yes, can you run some simple systemtap scripts?


I did not upgrade from an older version. I experienced the problems with 
SSSD 1.14. I followed the steps in the performance tuning guide and 
moved the cache directory into RAM. After that I deleted the directory's 
content and restarted SSSD.

This shouldn't be the case with 1.14+ and wasn't in my testing. Did you
remove the cache (really remove, not just expire with sss_cache) after
you upgraded from 1.13 to 1.14?

If yes, can you run some simple systemtap scripts?

Did you try all recommended steps or just few?

Do you know which one was the most useful in your case?



I think the biggest benefit came from moving the sssd cache into RAM.

Hi,

yesterday I suddenly was unable to use the webinterface of my ipa master. SSH

When I uncommented the setting "memcache_timeout = 600" in the sssd config

trust to AD)


I doubt it had anything to do memcache_timeout.
I would say that restart of sssd helped. But it difficult to say
without log files. either sssd logs or at least /var/log/secure
(journald for pam).

You were right. I uncommented the setting and the problem ocurred again.


Did you find anything suspicious in journald?
Is sssd_be busy (or any other process)?
high CPU, IO operations ...

It would be good to know more details. Restarting sssd is not a solution.


sssd_be consumed a lot of CPU and produced a lot of I/O in the sssd 
cache directory. After following 
https://jhrozek.wordpress.com/2015/08/19/performance-tuning-sssd-for-large-ipa-ad-trust-deployments/ 
the problems did nod reappear.
