conntrackd filling up var #6718
Description
ISSUE TYPE
- Bug Report
COMPONENT NAME
VR
CLOUDSTACK VERSION
latest
CONFIGURATION
N/A
OS / ENVIRONMENT
KVM
SUMMARY
We have large customers with a lot of VR traffic traversing the VRs. Logrotate cannot keep up and /var fills up to 100%, causing the VR to exhibit problems when attempting to start/restart instances in the VPC and/or traffic stops flowing. Conntrackd is logging verbosely to daemon.log.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Construct a VPC with a redundant VR pair with a private gateway or tunnel
2. Create a large amount of traffic to/from a VPC over gateway or tunnel
EXPECTED RESULTS
/var should not fill up regardless of traffic load
ACTUAL RESULTS
/var fills up
