Kernel error on Nexus 7000

Hello,

I work in an organization where we recently upgraded our core switches to Nexus 7000. Everything is set up well but we still keep getting this annoying message when we log in the switch. Also the time taken to login into the switch (ssh and telnet) is longer than normal. It is not affecting the network in any way but my concern is somewhere something is wrong and it will give us trouble in the future. Can anyone help me troubleshoot the cause of this error message.

Error message:

2011 Oct 21 11:41:37 Nexus-RH325 Oct 21 11:41:37 %KERN-2-SYSTEM_MSG: EXT3-fs error (device hde1) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted - kernel

Any help is appreciated.

Experiencing the same message.  Doesn't appear to be causing any impact.

This message says that there is an error on writing on logflash system.

You can do following:

1. format logflash using command:

#format logflash: check-filesystem

2. replace flash card with new one (RMA for example)

HTH,

Alex

Replaced flash card.  Issue resolved.  Thanks Oleksandr.
