Suddenly high CPU Usage on Sophos UTM Cluster

Hi,

we have two completly separate HA clusters (SG430 and SG210) which showed the same behaviour at the same time. Suddenly the cpu spikes up to 99% and thus turning down network functionality. we have looked into the following:


1. Update firmware (to 9.721) and pattern (other cluster with the same pattern do not expirience this behaviour)

2. Reboots on both nodes

3. Postgres rebuilds

4. Looking for large amounts of unusual traffic like from a DDoS attack -> none

After firmware Update and postgres rebuilds it stabalized on both nodes but it ist still 20-30% above whats normal

a "top" showd that it is httpproxy that leads to that cpu usage, but I cannot wrap my head around what caused this sudden CPU spike as the proxy is not used more or less than before...

Appreciate some opinions or solutions if any are applicable.

Kind Regards, Niclas
