I have two FortGate 800 connected in HA. The CPU load is more than 95% at all time. Diagnose sys top shows two instances of miglogd wich consumes 80% of the CPU and imd wich consumes the rest. What is the miglogd. Why does this deamon consume so much CPU. Can this deamon be stopped/restarted. How do I do that. Thanks for any advice.

    I am definitely seeing this problem on my 200B with miglogd, ipsengine, scanunitd (in that order). I am not running any traffic shaping rules. Just lots of IPS and flow-based AV. About 2500 sessions through a 20mbps connection -- nothing that should bother this box. Killing and restarting the processes brought things back to a reasonable CPU%. Anyone else seeing issues like this on 4.2.7? I' m wondering if a new IPS engine from support would address this.
