I rotate logs every night on my Director, running "doveadm log reopen"
I've noticed a problem with processes not closing correctly, they can be open for days and cause corrupt index files because they are connected to different backends (so it writes to the wrong server when the process disconnects)
23518 ? S 140:53 dovecot/anvil [4 connections] 23519 ? S 444:45 dovecot/log 23520 ? S 497:19 dovecot/imap-login [8 pre-login + 27 proxies] 23531 ? S 0:27 dovecot/config 26201 ? S 551:53 dovecot/imap-login [7 pre-login + 33 proxies] 22126 ? S 960:15 dovecot/pop3-login [28 pre-login + 396 proxies] 59515 ? S 218:32 dovecot/pop3-login [44 pre-login + 468 proxies]
Is there any way to force these orphaned processes to terminate after a certain time?
