[Ralo]

A warning log of  "%PLATFORM-3-ELEMENT_CRITICAL:Switch 1 R0/0: smand:  1/RP/0: Used Memory value 98% exceeds critical level 95%" appears.

show processes memory 

This is the suspicious process.

Does it have anything to do with the log?

So, what's the solution?

Hi,

This looks like a software bug. Advise updating the IOS.

if you leave as it is, it might downgrade the service, However, you have two options,

1) Reload the switch (Workaround not a solution)

or 

2) Upgrade the OS.
