Hello,

How can I identify the agent on which I should do that? I already stopped the 
most verbose agents, and there is no change on CPU.

I would suggest you turn on debug on one of the agents and see what the agent 
is trying to send versus what the server actually keeps. I had issues with a 
few event IDs generating thousands of events per second that weren't even used 
by the ossec server so I used a line like this on the agent to drop them 
without sending.

  <localfile>
    <location>Application</location>
    <log_format>eventchannel</log_format>
    <query>Event/System[EventID != 256] and Event/System[EventID != 258]</query>
  </localfile>

  <localfile>
    <location>Security</location>
    <log_format>eventchannel</log_format>
    <query>Event/System[EventID != 4656] and Event/System[EventID != 4658] and 
Event/System[EventID != 4670] and Event/System[EventID != 4672] and 
Event/System[EventID != 4688] and Event/System[EventID != 4689] and 
Event/System[EventID != 4690] and Event/System[EventID != 5152] and 
Event/System[EventID != 5156] and Event/System[EventID != 5158] and 
Event/System[EventID != 5447]</query>
  </localfile>

  <localfile>
    <location>System</location>
    <log_format>eventchannel</log_format>
    <query>Event/System[EventID!=7000]</query>
  </localfile>

Hello,

One of my OSSEC server is always busy (100% CPU) for some days, with 
ossec-remoted between 90% and 100% CPU. This server manages about 65 agents 
only. What can explain this high CPU utilization and how can I solve it? I 
already restarted OSSEC services and the whole server.
