Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5 Process Audit Monitor
This process monitor watches for the audit process to be running.
A failure indicates that the audit service on the system is down.
Check the service by running ps -ef | grep auditd or by viewing the diagnostic in the Operations Manager Console. Start it by running the command "service auditd start" or by clicking the recovery link in the Operations Manager Console.
For root cause analysis, first check the system logfile (/var/log/messages), and view any related entries at the time of failure.
