Symptoms

Linux servers are having the /var/log/messages file get filled up with events like:
Apr 28 15:45:04 utlxvti00058 kernel: convert_raw_inode: Failed to find mount point with inode dev=4 ino=4161547
Apr 28 15:45:04 utlxvti00058 kernel: convert_inode_dentry – vnode device_name not set for path[] dentry s_dev[4]

Cause

The Linux agent has aggressive syslog error logging in situations where the agent is not able to find the mount point of the file.

Resolution
