Hi!
After weeks of running slapd 2.3.27 suddenly quits answering requests, instead it says "no such objects" - where are objects. After a restart all data is back again.
Is this a known error (to heal by update - what I will do anyway)?
No, it's not (to me, at least). Updating could be an option, since connection caching and handling was significantly improved 'round 2.3.30 or something. If the problem persists, you should provide logs of what is actually done by slapd-meta(5) when it stops responding as expected. Probably, any serious issue will be logged at "any" level, so there should be no need to increase the log level. If nothing relevant appears, you should increase the log level (without stopping the server, of course; you can do this either via back-config or back-monitor). In any case, you can also force connections to expire and refresh; see "conn-ttl" and "idle-timeout" in slapd-meta(5). They are complementary, so I suggest using both.
