Palo Alto 10.2.3 VM Series FLEX - High CPU Peaks Every 10 Minutes on ESXI Hypervisor

L0 Member

Hello,

 

We are new to Palo Alto and a bit confused about the firewall behavior because it peaks every 10 minutes on the MP. There is a process on "show system resources follow" that is called "monitor" that is on 99-100 % of CPU usage. Unfortunately i cannot find anything about that process on the common processes KB.

 

There is no traffic impact at the moment but i want to understand what is happening there exactly.

 

Our firewall is running with 2 licensed cores.

It normally runs between 14-16 hours than it stops and slowly rises again.
