PA2020 High CPU utilization "useridd" 100% management plane

essilorbr: Thanks for the followup!

*mumbles something about PaloAlto and the quality assurance team*

we have the same problem here PA-2050 only user-id agents on 8 domain-controllers. Downgraded to 5.0.1  - problem solved.

May be irrelevant but after the content updates 12/02/13 the management CPU is no longer at 100% Still around 30% but usable.

This issue seems to be present in 4.1.11 as well, which is disappointing, as we rolled back from 5.0.2 to 4.1.10 to get away from this.

Can confirm the same problem with 4.1.11 on a PA-2050. Case open with support....

...How does this kind of stuff get by QA???

PA: How does this stuff get past the QA process? :smileysad:

In the image below, the circle on the left shows the management plane CPU with PANOS 5.0.1, the circle on the right shows the management plane with PANOS 5.0.2. So for us at least it actually got worse with the upgrade.

[coactive]

yes, 5.0.2 and 4.1.11 both seem to introduce this issue. Roll back to 5.0.1 or 4.1.10.

[ericgearhart]

See my image for what 5.0.1 looks like. The issue persisted in 5.0.1. The issue got worse with the upgrade.
