Hmm, AFAIK sssd aims at providing NSS/PAM services also on laptops where the DNS config might change every now and then. Therefore I'd consider this to be a bug anyway. >>> Surely systemctl status sssd should not say "running", while the >>> backend is dead. >> Not sure about that.

Disclaimer: I'm not involved in sssd development. It's a single process started by systemd. Your wish would require much work distinguishing various cases of failure during startup. Therefore I'd argue that fixing the reconnection bug is better than putting effort into this.
