Hi, on our end we are using the AD provider and see a similar (if not
even worse) behaviour on multiple systems:
ps -eo pid,ppid,stat,etime,comm,args | awk 'NR==1 || $3 ~ /^Z/'

As described above, the ldap_child processed get reaped once the sssd restarts
but reappear almost immediately. The number of zombie processes never change.
