ASA 5585-X S40 going to 99% cpu

saviola8x

Hello,

Yesterday the ASA 5585-X S40 going up to 99% cpu, I was checked almost ACL, service policy, disabled threat-detection but can't decrease cpu load. I tried some discussion, document but no luck.

Result of the command: "show cpu usage"

CPU utilization for 5 seconds = 99%; 1 minute: 99%; 5 minutes: 99%

Result of the command: "show processes cpu-usage"

Hi,

These kind of problems are usually best handled through the Cisco TAC (for which you need the service contract)

- Jouni

Hi, Have you had any updates from TAC around this issue? i have a similar issue on 5585-X S60 clustering pair running 9.1(2)

Thanks

David
