note
For information about the size of the debug records, see the NetIQ Knowledge Base article NETIQKB47496: "How do I clean up the debug files on the Unix agent?" at https://www.netiq.com/kb/esupport/consumer/solutionarea.asp?id=NETIQKB47496.

note
Rule group and individual rule debug can be turned on independently of each other. However you might not have enough information to troubleshoot. For more information, see the NetIQ Knowledge Base article NETIQKB47424: "How do I turn debug on or off for rules or rule groups?" at https://www.netiq.com/kb/esupport/consumer/solutionarea.asp?id=NETIQKB47424.

note
The detect loader, ./perl -  vrun detectd, looks for a new detect.xml file each minute and loads it when found. In some cases, this process will result in all the groups being restarted.
