Software in use: Solaris 8, Veritas VCS, Veritas VxVM, postfix 1.1.11,
amavisd 20020517 (which is a perl script, and I'm using perl 5.8.0), and
spamassassin.
Background: This project was first piloted by a colleague of mine who
wrote the configs, etc, and implemented it on a redhat box running on an
old compaq. Once that pilot was successful, funding was approved for me
to implement the production solution on a VxVCS cluster running on Netra
T1-200 servers with S1 disk arrays as shared storage for the cluster.
The problem that I'm having is this...
I'm using postfix with amavisd 20020517 (also tried 20020630,
same problem - the compaq box with linux was using 20020517 so I tried
backrevving to see if it was a problem unique to the 20020630 version,
but that didn't solve anything) and spamassassin. Shortly after
starting, amavisd will begin chewing up 100% of my cpu and connection
attempts from postfix to amavisd will timeout and the messages won't
come through. Does anyone know what could cause this to occur? This is
definitly an amavis problem - postfix keeps chugging along just fine.
Load averages on the system increase to >11.00 when amavis begins
chewing cpu like that. Please let me know if you have any ideas.
TIA, MDH.
