When a new Linux kernel version is released, Trend Micro releases a new kernel support
package
for the agent. If a computer's kernel version is not currently supported, then the
Activity
Monitoring engine can provide only basic protection. Normal protection resumes when
the agent
receives the update to support the new kernel version. To prevent this problem, verify
that the
new kernel version is supported before you upgrade it.

Reason IDs
To restore full functionality when the agent is providing only basic protection, you
must
resolve the cause of the warning based on the reason ID:
-
Reason ID 7:
-
Find out if the latest Kernel Support Package (KSP) for that particular kernel is available.
-
File a case to request KSP support.
-
- Other reason ID:
-
Contact your support provider
The reason ID is included in events forwarded to an external Syslog, SIEM server,
or Amazon
SNS. Also the event description for the Anti-Malware Engine Offline or Anti-Malware
Engine with
Basic Functions agent displays the reason ID.
