Guest Chris Daley - Dwebs Ltd Posted August 7, 2007 Posted August 7, 2007 Hi, Bit of an odd one this, we have two windows 2003 standard edition sp2 boxes, both had been up for around 30 days, then they were rebooted for the last lot of windows updates. When they came back online i started to notice the lsass process using large amounts of memory, currently after 10 days sitting at over 400mb. One box is the primary domain controller the other is a secondary, both run IIS and various other applications. I haven’t found as yet a way to reduce the amount of memory in use. Has anyone else seen this recently I did a google and a couple of people reported the same issue in July but didn’t find a solution.

Guest Chris Daley - Dwebs Ltd Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Re: LSASS Memory Issue This did not fix anything :( After the reboot the lsass process started at 34mb, and went up to 93Mb within the first 5mins. Any other ideas on this one?

Guest Chris Daley - Dwebs Ltd Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 Re: LSASS Memory Issue I thought i would let you know it looks like this is now solved. Firstly I tried a reboot on both boxes, after 2-3hrs lsass jumped to over 300mb on both boxes. So I sat down for around 2-3hrs read every log and looked at every possible cause. Then I noticed I had a strange dns error, basically windows saying it couldn’t find the domain associated with AD. This was odd as dcdiag and netdiag came back clean, logins were fine etc. I tried different methods to fix the dns issue but none worked, so I deleted the zone recreated it then windows added all the records automatically. Now the primary DC box after restarting netlogon lsass dropped to 38mb, excellent second box didn’t, a reboot finally sorted the second box out. The second box was a Secondary DC. But there was no DNS error before the July updates which was rather odd. So far it seems everything is working both boxes are below 35mb they sometimes drop then go up again but not over 38mb. But there we go. At least it is fixed touch wood (3 days and counting)!!!
