NOTE:
If the CPU usage of an agent is too high, the agent will hibernate and its status will changed to Disabled. In this case, check whether the CPU usage exceeds the threshold. Modify the threshold or expand the memory. If the CPU usage of a disabled agent falls below the threshold, the agent will automatically restart. |

After an agent is added, its initial running status is Hibernating. For details about how to change the status, see What Do I Do If the Database Audit Agent Is Hibernating? |
