Hey guys,

today we encountered a very strange problem regarding our OSSEC 
installation.

On the central OSSEC server, these messages appeared in the ossec.log:

2014/12/01 09:38:06 ossec-analysisd: Unable to open integrity file. 
Increase MAX_AGENTS.
2014/12/01 09:38:06 ossec-analysisd: Error handling integrity database.
2014/12/01 09:38:08 ossec-analysisd: Unable to open integrity file. 
Increase MAX_AGENTS.
2014/12/01 09:38:08 ossec-analysisd: Error handling integrity database.
2014/12/01 09:38:08 ossec-analysisd: Unable to open integrity file. 
Increase MAX_AGENTS.
2014/12/01 09:38:08 ossec-analysisd: Error handling integrity database.

along with these messages one of the ossec clients started to send huge 
amounts of data to the central server, using all bandwith avaiable.

Given to the message we should increase the max_agents of Ossec. this seems 
odd, because we actually have 215 active agents and 256 is the default 
maximum of OSSEC.

Anyone got any idea on this?

thanks
