    When I installed agent on the database server.
    Some logs appear on the database server /var/log/message

    Server System Version:

    Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.9 (Maipo)

    Agent Version:

    Imperva-ragent-RHEL-v7-kSMP-px86_64-b13.6.0.60.0.604640.tar.gz

    DB softwareMySQL 5.7

    logs appear:

    su: (to root) root on none

    su: (to mysql) root on none

    DB software:Oracle 19c

    logs appear:

    su: (to root) root on none

    su: (to grid) root on none

    su: (to oracle) root on none

    DB software:PostgreSQL 14.5

    logs appear:

    su: (to postgres) root on none

    Is this normal? Does it have any effect?

    What is the Agent doing with the su command?

    My Zabbix keeps alerting me about these logs!

    Hi Wenlong Wang, 

    This possibly is a bug depending on where you are seeing the logs and depending on the version of SecureSphere you are running. 

    Raise a case with support and they will be able to check further but I think looking at the information you have supplied this is a bug that is fixed in 14.3.0.10 onwards. 

    Regards,


    Philip
