Higher than normal CPU
M470 12.10.4
I've recently noticed my firebox running at higher than normal cpu levels.
After a reboot things are normal for a while then then cpu usage climbs again.
According to the Status Report this process seems to be the culprit with the %cpu running at 49.75%
3194 R 49.75 30824 25176 11264 Tue Nov 12 19:49:36 2024 1392:04.10 /usr/bin/admd -f
What is this process and what can I do if anything to reduce the cpu usage?
Thanks!

No idea what admd is.
However, V12.11 is now out so perhaps this version addresses the issue.
There is this fix in it:
This release resolves an issue that caused high CPU usage when a USB drive was plugged in. [FBX-24321]
So stop using the firebox to charge my cell phone then?
Actually there is nothing plugged into any USB ports on the firebox.
I may wait until 12.11.x before I upgrade. Sorta make it a habit of never upgrading to a new build # until the bug revisions come out.

I opened a support case the the issue caused my SSL-VPN and SSO to cease functioning.
This was the issue:

Had to upgrade to 12.11 anyhow to resolve the bug.
