Hello list,
i run here an large mailsetup with some million mailboxes and got strange
performance problems, cause i think i have overseen or forgotten an simple
setting.
Here are some details:
21 CentOS 7 Servers with dovecot 2.2.25 and ldap userdb/passdb via socket behind
an hardware loadbalancer.
The storage behind is an ISCSI Storage with 4 10Gbit/s multipath paths, splitted
up to 10 TB volumes for each server with LVM and xfs filesystem. No Cluster FS
Each server has about 60.000 to 75.000 mailboxes on it. mailboxes can have up to
10Gbyte space.
The Log says this sometimes and complete random:

Sure i have read the SocketUnavailabe wiki page and changed some settings, but
the errors are not gone.
Could you please look over my dovecot config and give me some tips or hints what
to change.
The next this is, when adding IPv6 via DNS to the hosts and login with IPv6 i
will become an proxy loop.
Settings in nameserver:
server1.domain.com IN A 123.123.123.123
server1.domain.com IN AAAA 2001:123::1
The host entry comes from the ldap and says: mailHost: server1.domain.com
Imap Login with IPv6 to server1.domain.com tries to proxy from
server1.domain.com ( IPv6 ) to server1.domain.com ( IPv6 ) and loops then.
I have removed the IPv6 AAAA entries in the dns to stop this loops.
Sorry, but i have no logs for this anymore.
Thanks in advise,
Daniel
