Opened: Dec 13, 2018 Severity: 3-Major
With a large number of client SSL profiles, combined with shallow nesting of these profiles, all referring to a single SSL certificate file object, mcpd can take a lot of time to process an update to that certificate. It is possible this amount of time will be longer than sod's threshold, and cause it to kill mcpd.
sod kills mcpd, which causes a failover (when high availability (HA) is configured) or an outage (when there is no high availability (HA) configured).
- A large number (hundreds or thousands) of client SSL profiles that have a shallow nesting structure and all point back to a single SSL certificate file object. - Happens when the SSL certificate is updated.
None.
Prevented sod from killing mcpd in this scenario.
