Process logging 100% CPU

Hi all,

I have a problem with 1 one my units. It is a RB2011UAS-RM running 6.20.

The CPU load is 100% and i can see the logging proccess using the whole cpu.

How can i stop it without rebooting the router? It is in production so i can not reboot it.

Thank you in advance.

Go to /system logging and try disabling one by one the log rules until the CPU drops. Than analyze the one causing it.

Hello,

Thank you for your help.

I can not do this because i have a blank window when i display the logging settings, nothing appears :frowning:

even if you try for terminal? terminal might be a bit lighter than winbox, so it might be easier for the CPU to display the rules.

Yes, i get a timeout every command i write depending logging.

Can you get it to export the configuration via telnet or SSH connection? It may not export the entire config you may want to only ‘/ip firewall export’

If you can, are there any firewall rules which log packets? If so, try to disable the rule. If not just disable all entries under /system logging.

/system logging disable [find]
