Thanks Justin!

Happening again, no intel.log file getting generated (I don't know why poor
intel file getting impacted, n not any other log file :-/ )

Here's the stats (before I go ahead and disable scan.bro, and restart the
cluster)
$ cat conn.log |bro-cut id.resp_p history|fgrep -w S|sort|uniq  -c|sort
-nr|head
 398587 2323    S
 256953 5358    S
 205109 7547    S
 115442 6789    S
 101712 22      S
  97051 81      S
  90099 5800    S
  44297 40884   S
  43943 40876   S
  35522 80      S

$ free
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache
available
Mem:      131921372   131069700      562628       18476      289044
 223264
Swap:       8388600     4443208     3945392

As it can be seen above, worker1 using almost 100% memory :(

Going to disable scan.bro, and restart the cluster.
Also, will get Munin to have system monitoring graph on the sensors.

Thanks,
Fatema.
