Anyone seen Sandblast TE causing high load average in top?

[Richard_Jackson]

We are seeing multiple   'teCleanupOldFil'    processes in top on Standby member of ClusterXL pair. Active member not seeing this.

Any idea of the cause?

Hi,

Sorry to wake up an old post! Just wondering if you got any further with this in the end?

I am noticing VSX high CPU, so checked top command and high usage being shown for command " teCleanupOldFil " - It's been running for 600 minutes + 

Searching about " teCleanupOldFil " online only comes up with 1 or 2 results so struggling to find much on it.

VSX is running R80.30

Thanks!
Ben
