locks fcntl flocks

[shawn]

I installed a new MailScanner(4.22-5) server Friday with SA (2.55), DCC
and Razor. Antivirus is being handled by f-prot and rav.  Everything
seems to be working fine under a light load -about 100 emails have gone
thru since friday.  I decided to stress test by sending 200 emails thru
as fast as possible – took 1 ½ minutes for server to receive them.  I
checked logs and found lots of these errors.  Sendmail is version 8.11.6
on RH 7.1.

 

lots of these 

 

Jul  7 02:12:39 testsystem MailScanner[22304]: Failed to lock

+</var/spool/mqueue.in/dfh677AV620223 with unexpected error: No locks

available

 

 

And then a bunch of these

 

 

Jul  7 03:43:12 testsystem sendmail[3788]: h678cfu00497: SYSERR(root):

euid=0): No locks available

 

 

 

All emails did come thru and all where scored by SA.

 

 

 

I ran the 200 email test a 2nd time and only 176 emails came thru –

could be tester though, on a 2nd system I lost 4 out 200 but showed no

errors.  Also had 3 errors with DCC on 2nd run.

 

 

 

dccproc[2264]: fcntl(F_SETLKW F_WRLCK DCC-map /var/dcc/map 3): No locks

available

 

 

 

Any ideas?  Googling for answers but not getting anywhere.

 

Thanks

Shawn
