Hello Timo and dovecot teamwork,
We have dovecot 2.0.10 installed with this configuration:
# dovecot -n # 2.0.10: /usr/local/dovecot/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5 x86_64 Scientific Linux SL release 5.2 (Boron) auth_cache_size = 500 k auth_cache_ttl = 1000 secs disable_plaintext_auth = no first_valid_uid = 501 lock_method = dotlock mail_fsync = always mail_gid = vmail mail_location = maildir:%h/Maildir mail_nfs_index = yes mail_nfs_storage = yes mail_plugins = quota autocreate mail_uid = vmail managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date mmap_disable = yes namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = . type = private } namespace { hidden = yes inbox = no list = no location = prefix = INBOX. separator = . type = private } namespace { location = maildir:%h/Maildir/_backup prefix = _backup. separator = . type = private } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf driver = ldap } plugin/autocreate = Spam plugin/autosubscribe = Spam plugin/quota = maildir:_backup:ns= plugin/quota_warning = storage=75%% quota-warning 75 %u plugin/quota_warning2 = storage=90%% quota-warning 90 %u plugin/sieve = %h/.dovecot.sieve plugin/sieve_dir = %h/sieve protocols = imap pop3 sieve service anvil { client_limit = 5000 } service auth { client_limit = 9000 unix_listener auth-master { group = vmail mode = 0700 user = vmail } user = root vsz_limit = 2 G } service imap-login { executable = /usr/local/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap-login inet_listener imap { address = * port = 143 } inet_listener imaps { address = * port = 993 } process_limit = 2048 process_min_avail = 20 user = vmail } service imap { executable = /usr/local/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap process_limit = 2048 } service managesieve-login { executable = /usr/local/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/managesieve-login inet_listener sieve { address = * port = 4190 } inet_listener sieve_deprecated { address = * port = 12000 } user = vmail } service managesieve { executable = /usr/local/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/managesieve } service pop3-login { executable = /usr/local/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login inet_listener pop3 { address = * port = 110 } inet_listener pop3s { address = * port = 995 } process_limit = 2048 process_min_avail = 20 user = vmail } service pop3 { executable = /usr/local/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/pop3 process_limit = 2048 } service quota-warning { executable = script /usr/local/dovecot/bin/quota-warning.sh unix_listener quota-warning { group = vmail mode = 0700 user = vmail } } ssl_cert = fue rechazado automaticamente por nuestro sistema :%n%r rejection_subject = Rechazado: %s sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/exim } protocol sieve { managesieve_implementation_string = dovecot Pigeonhole managesieve_logout_format = bytes ( in=%i : out=%o ) managesieve_max_line_length = 65536 }
The problem is at the moment of maximum load of the system. We can see many imap sessions but there are also many imap-login processes, which is weird. Has it something to do with any parameter of our configuration? We think is something with the vsz_limit parameter. How can we tune it?
Thank you very much in advanced.
Kind regards.
