As Jay mentioned, if you disable a plugin but do NOT remove resources
from inventory whose types come from that plugin, the agent will go into
an infinite "availability scan" loop, constantly performing avail scans
within seconds of each other.
Workaround is as Jay said - re-enable the plugin or remove the resources
from inventory that are no longer supported (since the plugins are now
disabled).

There is already a BZ for this - see:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=647930
This probably should be put in the cumulative branch.
