I don’t think it’s related. We have received a few reports about that, while others with similar configs have no issues at all. As far as I know there is already a direct contact established between the frr team and vyos.
I tried to reproduce it a few times, but weren’t successful doing so, so very hard to analyze.
I would like to report that we are currently with this problem, build: VyOS 1.2.0-rolling+201906010337
Already tested with 1.2.1 EPA3 and LTS (git 04/2019)
We have 2 BGP IPv4 Full Routing tables and a couple of non Full IPv6 Peers. A total 15 peers.
After the server goes Up, everything is fine, bgp ok, traffic is good, latency is great. But minutes after that the free memory starts to decrease to a point is get to 0 and the servers crashes. It takes about 3 days to “leak” all the memory from the server.
1.2.0-rolling+201807230337 (OK 148 days uptime)
ProLiant DL360 G5
1.2.0-rc9 (OK 121 days uptime)
ProLiant DL380 G5
1.2.0 (OK 93 days uptime)
PowerEdge 2950
1.2.0-rolling+201809210337 (Memory only OK for less than 100 days)
ProLiant DL380 G5
This ticket was reported whit below server/version and after install ATOP the leak slowed down. Now, every 3 months I need to restart the server - before was every 3 days
I was waiting for version 1.2.1 LTS to upgrade this server, but I don’t know where to download it - as contributor (I only have 1.2.0).
Yes, I received this e-mail 5 or 6 months ago. I have this contributor badge (at youracclaim), but something seems to be wrong! At this link you sent, only appear the “VyOS 1.1.x” empty folder.
Hi Luis, sorry using this old post, but I have the same problem, so how and where you chance this?
“interval to 300s (OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.4.11.0)”
With Best Regards
Hi Luiz, how are you?
Thank you for your reply. I can’t found Vyos-1.2.0 or Vyos-1.2.x versions to download and try do a upgrade.
My current version is 1.1.8, with Dell hardware, model R710.
You said this one" Until yesterday morning 10AM I was using memory SNMP check every 1.800s, then I changed interval to 300s (OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.4.11.0). This change can be seen with “dots” on the next image." But where you did this change?
On vyos 1.2.5 issue with too much memory consumed because of the BGP process with a lot of routes in the routing table is solved. Th e difference is how the snmpd process is executed:
Even using this change manually in the versions (1.2.0,1.2.1,1.2.3) the memory problem persisted. This change helped to reduce CPU consumption for the SNMP process. In version 1.2.4 and 1.2.5 the drop really seems to have stabilized (not decreasing so much).
