6500 switch errors

Anand G

Problem Detail:

For one of the customer, we found one of our closet switches with several cards all amber.  Logs shows several errors resulting in the modules all resetting.  They all passed diag but many were inoperable.  Subsequently, a hw-mod mod reset was performed on one module and the connectivity restored to end devices but it still produced an error message in the logs during the reset.  The switch is rebooted.

The main logs noticed are extracted here. The complete logs are attached.

Upon analysis, I identified the below bugs. However, both bugs are duplicates.

CSCtd60912 Crash after 'pm failed to send port admin change notification'

CSCtx47138 SW_VLAN-3-VLAN_PM_NOTIFICATION_FAILURE:VLAN Manager synchronization fail

After reload the device is working normal as expected.

Can someone provide some assistance in this case?

Thanks, Anand

You're getting Tracebacks.  The first thing I'd be doing is upgrading the IOS to, say, SXJ-series.

Does the customer hits the mentioned bugs? I believe those are 'Duplicate' ones.

Currently, the customer is looking for RCA.

The upgrade could be a next action plan.

Thanks, Anand
