Error Log File Rotation
When you rotate an agent’s error log file (default location is
/var/opt/ids/error.log), the idsagent process must be restarted by sending
it a HUP signal in order for all new errors to appear in a newly created
error log file.
HIDS SPI Cannot Receive Alerts From a Managed IA Node
When an Itanium-based (Itanium IA64) system is configured to run an
HIDS agent that forwards alerts to the HIDS OVO SPI, alerts are not
displayed on the OVO console. The HIDS response program on the agent
system that forwards alerts to OVO (ids_vpoalert) is a PA-RISC
binary, and PA-RISC OVO shared libraries used by the ids_vpoalert
binary are not available on Itanium-based systems. For more

NOTE To fix this limitation, contact HP support.
Large Aggregated Alerts are not Displayed on OVO Console by
HIDS SPI
If the aggregation feature is enabled on an HIDS agent and the
aggregated alert size is greater than or equal to 2 KB, the HIDS agent
cannot forward the alert to the OVO server. As a result, large aggregated
alerts are not displayed on the OVO console. For more information,
look-up the SR number 8606435491 at: http://www.chart.hp.com.
