FirePower Module: One cpu stuck at 100%

[tsiemers1]

One cpu is stuck at 100% for cpu 03 on a FirePower module on an ASA 5545-x.  Going into the the console for the module and doing a "top" command I see that the process using the most CPU is "ids_event_alert".  

Does anyone have any documentation on where to find logs to see what is causing the high CPU spike for one processor.  Speciffically a log correlating to "ids_event_alert".

Attach is a screenshot of the top command on the "expert" console form the affected Firepower Module.

Versions:

ASA-- 9.4(2)11

Module-- 6.1.0-330

I have always liked using the following Linux commands:

ps -eo pcpu,pid,user,args | sort -k1 -r | head -10

or

ps xo pid,cmd --sort=%cmd | tail -1

I hope this helps!
