Hello
As you may know that there is a bug with Nexus switches called "SYSMGR-2-VOLATILE_DB_FULL" with versions below
System version: 5.0(2)N2(1)
that causes a switch to crash reboot once dir
/dev/shm
gets to 100% unless updated to a later version.
in order to fill the dir you can run long commands such as "show run" (needs to be over 190 lines)
and then check how it increases running
show system internal flash
show system internal dir /dev/shm | i csm_acfg | count
I was wondering if there is a similar bug with 4500 switches ?
Catalyst 4500 L3 Switch Software (cat4500es8-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 03.11.00.E RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc3)
So what exactly happened...
I have a script that runs from time to time that gets over 190 lines from all of our switches and performs some action remotely, so recently when the script ran a few minutes later we had a massive outage since our core switch had a power outage( what I was able to see from logs) The thing is there are 2 4500 chassis configured with sso redundancy so the failover should have been instantaneous, however everything was down for about 8 mins before the standby switch became active.
Can anyone please advise if there is a similar bug with 4500 switches ?
Thank you.
