Troubleshoot IoT event overloaded alert

The IoT event Fully overloaded alert (Error: Activation Failed) appears in Deep Security when Deep Security Manager is taking longer than usual to process IoT events.

To resolve this issue, check for Deep Security Agent(s) unexpectedly producing a large number of security events:

  • Check the security events in Events & Reports to see if any computers are generating a lot of events.
  • Check those computers for misconfigured rules.

If the problem is still unresolved, contact support.
