Caching server - named process is limit at 500MB

Hi,

 

How to check 64 bit version of bind?

 

I often download source code from isc.org and compile on 64 bit Solaris 10
OS then. I always consider my version is 64 bit. 

 

Thanks and Best Regards,

Had the same issue in the past on Solaris 8 and 9 day as the default
compiled binaries is 32-bit which seem to limit memory usage to 512 MB. You
can modify the configure script/source to use more memory in 32-bit, but I
will suggest you to move to 64-bit versions of BIND.  

When we migrated to Solaris 10, I compiled from source with 64-bit support,
this you need to specify in the configure script and there is some other
edits you might have yo do if you need SSL support for DNSsec.

You can compile the source with GCC or Studio, they both work fine.

If you need any specific help, you are welcome to contact me directly.

Regards

Hi,

 

We deploy bind 9.x.x cache server, solaris 10 sparc on a system that
servicing large customers. We face an issue that  bind process on a server
is limit at 500MB. If number of request to the server  is increase, bind is
hang and unable to response queries. We recognize the named process is at
500MB when it is hang.

 

To face this issue we make many virtual machines on a physical server (
zones in solaris sparc, and xen on intel ) to increase performance. Because
we can increase the performance on a physical server,  so we can deduce that
the issue is not cause by hardware limit. It may be a software bug or miss
configuration. 

 

Please take a look for my issue. I would appreciate any help.

 

Thanks and Best Regards,
