Dear,

After some rigorous checks & debug found the local FS was getting exhausted due to huge amount of logs written by slapd daemon.

Unfortunately, this FS is system mounted locally (sda2) & hence couldn't be expanded further. As a workaround, has restricted log quantity to 6000/10 seconds via rsyslog rate-limiting feature.

Ulrich,
Will check onto system for any slow local disk problem persists.. Many thanks for your kind & valuable suggestion.

Thanks & Kind Regards,
Saurabh LAHOTI.

Could it be a slow local disk?
