Crashing during database dump
2006-11-08 by marknreynolds
Hi, I have installed Milter-greylist 2.0.2-1 on a very busy (SuSE 9) mail relay (approx 12,000 recipients ) Its been working brilliantly, halving the amount of mail getting to Mailscanner however it occasionally crashes when it dumps the database to disk. Currently the database is 139MB and there is a significant pause whilst the backup occurs (approx 30secs). I am going to increase the dumpfreq, currently 10m and add a milter timeout in the sendmail config (currently there is none). I would appreciate any other recommendations on running milter-greylist on a very busy server. Regards Mark Reynolds
