Service sssd has started to crash frequently

[mrmarkuz (Markus Neuberger)]

Could it be that there was high load when sssd gave up?

Does it work to restart the service?

systemctl restart sssd

Maybe interesting:

Error in SSSD service on mail server

The server seems to be too weak to handle the load. Could you please show the load average? (the output of the uptime command is ok). You can try to temporarily work around the problem by increasing the SSSD watchdog timeout: under your domain section of /etc/sssd/sssd.conf add timeout = 20 restart sssd: systemctl restart sssd The real fix is to lower the load average using powerful hardware.

Sssd stops to work

systemctl edit sssd add [Service] Restart=on-failure RestartSec=60s save then systemctl daemon-reload verify systemctl cat sssd restart sssd systemctl restart sssd verfiy by killing the PID of sssd it must restart after 60s kill -9 $(pidof sssd) check the process starts again : systemctl status sssd however reading sssd.conf(5): config file for SSSD - Linux man page I saw the default timeout is set to 60s, maybe we could try to increase it a bit
