Ethernet port lock up

[vinhnguyen]

I have a content engine with Version: ce507-4.0.3. The content engine works fine except that after a period of time about a day the port on the switch (a catalyst 3550) shows as down/down. The port on the switch has no errors. If I removed the ethernet cable and plug it back in to the Content engine it comes back up again. Any ideas on the problem?

I replaced a new content engine and during boot up I get this error:

Dec 16 22:47:29 (none) Diamond: PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 2 of device 00:0d.0

Dec 16 22:47:29 (none) Diamond: PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 2 of device 00:0e.0

Dec 16 22:47:29 (none) Diamond: PCI: Allocation of memory region 00:0e.0/2 (-1609564160 bytes) failed

I then did a "show ecdn" and get this message eventhough I have done all that is required.

ECDN content engine is loading, state is no-network, Waiting for network configuration.

We experienced a slightly similar problem on our 3550. Our port showed down/down but would not come up again until a re-load. We moved the cable to another port and it came up ok. Replacing the cable in its original port proved the same down/down, it seem that the port just stopped working.

could you clarify the problem

- what type of switch ? (is it a 3550 for both of you) ?

- what type of device attached to it on the faulty port ?

- what port speed ? duplex ? auto or static ?

- what software version on the Cat and the other equipment ?

- is the frequency always 1 day ?

Thanks,

Gilles
