Hello everyone.
I hope that everyone's doing well.
So to explain what's happening to me.
I took over a CentOS server (centos-release-7-7.1908.0.el7.centos.x86_64), this server have a website that can be seen from the outside.
I took over the server like 2 years ago, but around 1 year ago, from time to time I started getting "Audit: printk limit exceeded" and the website stops working correctly.
The error message displays on the log in screen of the server with putty, and the website only starts working after I restart the server.
It will work ok for sometime, but after a while the error comes back. Sometimes months, sometimes weeks.
I did a search in the forum and I found a post similar to this one, but there wasn't a resolution to it, he just restarted the service and it started working, basically like me, but for me it comes back.
Does anyone have a clue?

Re: Audit: printk limit exceeded
I don't know what your problem is, but you may want to
run yum update to get C7.9 (it may even fix your problem).

Re: Audit: printk limit exceeded
Those messages are a side effect of some other audit messages trying to flood the logs:
