Description Arvid Requate

2021-09-01 18:16:32 CEST

On one of the Samba/AD School-DCs in an UCS@school setup there was a corruption of the

/var/lib/samba/private/sam.ldb.d/DC\=DOMAINDNSZONES\,DC\=EXAMPLE\,DC\=ORG.ldb

file, which made the bind9 crash repeatedly. It turned out that the samba tdb backup was failing because of that since several days.

It would be good to have a nagios check or something like that for this or make this error show up more prominent in some other way.
