Applies To
RSA Product Set: Data Loss Prevention (DLP)
RSA Product/Service Type: Enterprise Manager
RSA Version/Condition: 9.6, 9.6 SP2 (and all patch versions)
 
Issue
Events are not being processed by the Enterprise Manager.

The following error message is reported in the em.log file:
RSA DLP ERROR - LoggingAsynchronousExceptionListener.onEvent(39) | Asynchronous exception occurred processing event continuation
Cause
This issue occurs because DLP events are being piled up on downstream nodes [Network controller/Endpoint coordinator/Enterprise-coordinator].
The error is generated when tem.home is configured to store DLP events on a Network-Attached Storage (NAS).
Resolution
Check the network connectivity as follows:
  • NIC of EM server. [upgrade NIC firmware if required].
  • Any CRC's/physical errors captured  on any interface.
  • Make sure that there is no miss-configured MTU on any intermediate node between EM & NAS storage. 
  • No faulty cables between intermediate nodes. 
  • No hardware fault on any of the intermediate nodes connecting EM to NAS Storage.
