+SCACHE(8)                                                            SCACHE(8)

+NAME
+       scache - Postfix shared connection cache server
+
+SYNOPSIS
+       scache [generic Postfix daemon options]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+       The  scache(8)  server  maintains a shared multi-connection cache. This
+       information can be used by, for example, Postfix SMTP clients or  other
+       Postfix delivery agents.
+
+       The connection cache is organized into logical destination names, phys-
+       ical endpoint names, and connections.
+
+       As a specific example, logical SMTP  destinations  specify  (transport,
+       domain,  port),  and  physical  SMTP  endpoints  specify (transport, IP
+       address, port).  An SMTP connection may be  saved  after  a  successful
+       mail transaction.
+
+       In  the general case, one logical destination may refer to zero or more
+       physical endpoints, one physical endpoint may be referenced by zero  or
+       more  logical  destinations, and one endpoint may refer to zero or more
+       connections.
+
+       The exact syntax of a logical destination or endpoint name is  applica-
+       tion  dependent;  the  scache(8) server does not care.  A connection is
+       stored as a file descriptor together with application-dependent  infor-
+       mation  that  is  needed to re-activate a connection object. Again, the
+       scache(8) server is completely unaware of the details of that  informa-
+       tion.
+
+       All  information  is stored with a finite time to live (ttl).  The con-
+       nection cache  daemon  terminates  when  no  client  is  connected  for
+       max_idle time units.
+
+       This server implements the following requests:
+
+       save_endp ttl endpoint endpoint_properties file_descriptor
+              Save  the specified file descriptor and connection property data
+              under the specified endpoint name. The endpoint  properties  are
+              used  by  the  client  to  re-activate  a  passivated connection
+              object.
+
+       find_endp endpoint
+              Look up cached properties and a cached file descriptor  for  the
+              specified endpoint.
+
+       save_dest ttl destination destination_properties endpoint
+              Save  the  binding between a logical destination and an endpoint
+              under the destination name, together with  destination  specific
+              connection  properties.  The  destination properties are used by
+              the client to re-activate a passivated connection object.
+
+       find_dest destination
+              Look up cached destination properties, cached  endpoint  proper-
+              ties,  and  a  cached  file descriptor for the specified logical
+              destination.
+
+SECURITY
+       The scache(8) server is not security-sensitive. It does not talk to the
+       network, and it does not talk to local users.  The scache(8) server can
+       run chrooted at fixed low privilege.
+
+       The scache(8) server is not a trusted process. It must not be  used  to
+       store information that is security sensitive.
+
+DIAGNOSTICS
+       Problems and transactions are logged to syslogd(8) or postlogd(8).
+
+BUGS
+       The session cache cannot be shared among multiple machines.
+
+       When  a  connection  expires  from  the cache, it is closed without the
+       appropriate protocol specific handshake.
+
+CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
+       Changes to main.cf are picked up automatically as  scache(8)  processes
+       run for only a limited amount of time. Use the command "postfix reload"
+       to speed up a change.
+
+       The text below provides only a parameter summary. See  postconf(5)  for
+       more details including examples.
+
+RESOURCE CONTROLS
+       connection_cache_ttl_limit (2s)
+              The  maximal  time-to-live  value  that the scache(8) connection
+              cache server allows.
+
+       connection_cache_status_update_time (600s)
+              How frequently the scache(8) server logs usage  statistics  with
+              connection cache hit and miss rates for logical destinations and
+              for physical endpoints.
+
+MISCELLANEOUS CONTROLS
+       config_directory (see 'postconf -d' output)
+              The default location of the Postfix main.cf and  master.cf  con-
+              figuration files.
+
+       daemon_timeout (18000s)
+              How  much  time  a  Postfix  daemon process may take to handle a
+              request before it is terminated by a built-in watchdog timer.
+
+       ipc_timeout (3600s)
+              The time limit for sending  or  receiving  information  over  an
+              internal communication channel.
+
+       max_idle (100s)
+              The  maximum  amount of time that an idle Postfix daemon process
+              waits for an incoming connection before terminating voluntarily.
+
+       process_id (read-only)
+              The process ID of a Postfix command or daemon process.
+
+       process_name (read-only)
+              The process name of a Postfix command or daemon process.
+
+       syslog_facility (mail)
+              The syslog facility of Postfix logging.
+
+       syslog_name (see 'postconf -d' output)
+              A  prefix  that  is  prepended  to  the  process  name in syslog
+              records, so that, for example, "smtpd" becomes "prefix/smtpd".
+
+       Available in Postfix 3.3 and later:
+
+       service_name (read-only)
+              The master.cf service name of a Postfix daemon process.
