What I'd like to understand -
a) what does it mean when the kernel say $SUBJ,
The number of pending connection requests exceeds socket backlog
b) what are the criteria for (a),
backlog is set by listen() call. Max value is clamped by both net.core.somaxconn and net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog, whatever is smaller.
c) am I loosing clients when it does, and
If you get these messages you are probably not losing them.
That was my thought too, but I thought I was dealing with a system limit, not a per-application.
d) what can I do to prevent it?
Increase rsycnd backlog?
listen backlog You can override the default backlog value when the daemon listens for connections. It defaults to 5.
Ah, looks like I need a newer rsyncd. :-) thanks Andrei. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (24.8°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
