Hello All,
We have a pair of 6509s (HSRP), and would like to check status of the backplane utilization.
The "show catalyst6000 traffic-meter" command doesn't work - I get the "This Supervisor hardware revision has no support for traffic meter feature." message. Here is our list of modules:

As I understand it, we don't have the proper hardware to use the "show catalyst6000 traffic-meter" command to check the backplane utilization -- so what are our alternatives?
Any assistance is greatly appreciated!
Solved! Go to Solution.

What IOS version are you running? Many of the more advanced show commands require a relatively recent IOS.
According to the command reference, the one I suggested should be supported on 12.2(33)SXI or later.

Try "show platform hardware capacity fabric"

Thanks Marvin!
Unfortunately, that doesn't work for me:
HW1-C6509-1A-01#show platform ?
buffers Show buffer allocation
capture ELAM/packet buffer capture commands
eeprom Show CPU eeprom
fault Show fault data
hardware Show platform hardware information
internal-vlan Show internal vlan
netint Show platform net interrupt information
software Show platform software information
tech-support Show system information for Tech-Support
tlb Show processor TLB registers
HW1-C6509-1A-01#show platform hardware ?
pfc Show Forward Engine information
| Output modifiers
Any other thoughts?
Thanks!

Yes, you are going to have to run later code than the 8 year old version you have to get all the shiny commands.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Thanks Marvin - I will pursue that.

You're welcome. Might break your 7 year uptime streak though.
