    LPDFD JunOS 9.4R1.8 process - what is it?

    This process has overflowed /mfs file system with log files /mfs/var/lpdfd/log.00000000xx.

    Hi AlexK,

     

     LPDFD is an internal JUNOS module that controls (mostly) VOIP resources in the system and I'm not 100% sure at this point why your logfiles did not rotate.

     

     I'd suggest to open a case with JTAC and have it analyzed.

     

     Cheers,

     Erdem

    Hi,

    this looks like matching PR 427488 (internal PR), which got fixed in following JUNOS releases:  9.4R3,  9.5R1, 9.6R1 and higher

    Hi,

     

    What will be the temporarily solution for this? Do we need to delete some files if we will not upgrade to a higher SW version? What will be the impact if we did not delete any file and the /mfs remains 100%?

     

    thanks

    try to issue this command

     

    1. restart this daemon:

    > restart local-policy-decision-function

    2. disable lpdfd:

    # set system processes local-policy-decision-function disable

    # commit
