Thread: Question about a high load BIND server setup...




Question about a high load BIND server setup...
user name
2006-08-30 18:04:10
I currently have a FreeBSD 6-STABLE (a few months old)
machine running 
bind 9.3.2. It is a caching only name server for a large
base of internet 
T1 customers (like 5000 customers).

I just upgraded to 9.3.2 today. I have been having memory
issues. For 
starter, when the named pid grows res mem to around 500m it
craps out and 
stops resolving. The tentative fix was to restart bind every
night at 2am.

However, today, the res mem grow from 25m at startup to 500m
in about 4 
hours. Quicker then usually, so I thought maybe there was a
memory leak, 
and thats why I upgraded to the latest version of bind.


I need some pointers. I know alot of people dont recommend
bind for 
large caching environments, but right now we can't easily
change the 
setup. So I am trying to stabilize things as-is. The server
used to be 
Redhat linux, just recently did it move to FreeBSD 6.

My sysctl kernel params are standard, somaxconn was bumped
up to 512. I 
was also thinking about enabling kern.ipc.shm_use_phys. Do
you think that 
will help? TUNING man pages says it improves memory
performance for pids 
that use alot of memory.

During peak, the server is pushing around 1.6Mbps of pure
dns traffic.

Here is my named.conf options:

         directory               "/etc/namedb";
         pid-file               
"/var/run/named/pid";
         dump-file              
"/var/dump/named_dump.db";
         statistics-file        
"/var/stats/named.stats";
         listen-on               { 127.0.0.1; 209.50.171.81;
};
         recursive-clients       10000;
         auth-nxdomain           no;
         tcp-clients             10000;
         max-cache-size          400000000;

Any ideas?

Would something like djbdns really help? I can switch, but
can't do it for 
at least a week while we wait for new hardware.

Thanks
John

I would realy use djbdns. Memory usage and load it much
lower then Bind.
We switched from Bind to djbdns in march, and now it looks
like the
machine almost do nothing! No high load, nor strange memory
usage!
If you ask my, i'dd realy switch do djbdns.
But that won't help for the week to come.

Build bind with its internal memory allocator.  To to do
this, change 
CONFIGURE_ARGS in /usr/ports/dns/bind9/Makefile to read
like:

--
CONFIGURE_ARGS= --localstatedir=/var --disable-linux-caps \
                --with-randomdev=/dev/random \
                STD_CDEFINES=-DISC_MEM_USE_INTERNAL_MALLOC=1
--

make clean
make WITH_PORT_REPLACES_BASE_BIND9=YES
make install


/etc/sysctl.conf settings:

net.inet.raw.recvspace=128000
net.inet.udp.recvspace=256000
net.inet.tcp.sendspace=128000
net.inet.tcp.recvspace=128000
net.inet.tcp.inflight_enable=1
kern.ipc.maxsockbuf=256000
kern.ipc.somaxconn=2048
net.inet.ip.intr_queue_maxlen=128

Thanks.

I put those changes in. I'll see how it behaves over the
next day.

One thing I noticed though, I can't run ifconfig now:

cache01# /sbin/ifconfig -a
ifconfig: socket(family 2,SOCK_DGRAM): No buffer space
available

Would that have anything to do with those sysctl settings.

You should tune kern.ipc.nmbclusters using /boot/loader.conf
or your
kernelconfig aswell.

You can read more about it in tuning(7)

Question about a high load BIND server setup...

Okay, so this is where I am at.

sysctl tunables are standard, but somaxconn was bumped up to
512.

I edit /boot/loader.conf and added:

kern.dfldsiz=900000000
kern.dflssiz=700000000
kern.maxdsiz=900000000
kern.maxssiz=700000000
kern.maxusers=512

And I recompiled Bind 9.3.2 and enabled the internal memory
allocator.

One thing I still get, which I dont understand why, is
whenever I  
stop named, I get the following console error:

Aug 31 23:47:57 cache01 kernel: Limiting icmp unreach
response from  
213 to 200 packets/sec
Aug 31 23:47:58 cache01 kernel: Limiting icmp unreach
response from  
242 to 200 packets/sec
Aug 31 23:47:59 cache01 kernel: Limiting icmp unreach
response from  
208 to 200 packets/sec
Aug 31 23:48:00 cache01 kernel: Limiting icmp unreach
response from  
224 to 200 packets/sec

As soon as I start named, it goes away. Any idea what this
can be?

-John

Those messages are being sent by your server in response to
failed  
connections to port 53. Because named is no longer listening
on that  
port (service is stopped) your server is informing machines
which are  
attempting to make connections to port 53 that the port is
closed.
