It is a part of EMS (Event Monitoring System) and EMS Is known to be a resource hog if it is not installed/configured correctly or not patched regularly. Stop-gap measure is to stop and restart ems using :

/sbin/init.d/ems stop
/sbin/init.d/ems start

Hope this helps, but make sure you have the right version of EMS and patch it so that you do not come to this restart process frequently.

Hi Navin:

No, this is part of your STM/EMS monitoring for server health.

You might want to refresh your STM software and/or look for any patches to it:
