Hello,
Since a while (I don't know exactly when it started), I can see this log entry on our 6509-E device :
%EARL_L3_ASIC-SW1_DFC3-3-INTR_WARN: EARL L3 ASIC: Non-fatal interrupt Netflow interrupt
It appears every second. I'm looking for information about that. But I'm not able to find anything on the web.
Netflow config is :
ip flow-export source Loopback0
ip flow-export version 9
ip flow-export destination 10.139.16.196 9996
Switch config is the same on another device. That one doesn't get this log entry.
Can anybody help me please ?
Thanks.

If the problem is persistent that would indicate bad memory on module 3
used for netflow. It is reporting a sigle bit parity error each time
the suspect memory is addressed. ECC on the card is correcting the bit
flip and alerting you of the event. I dont see this being a transient
issue and I recommend you open a TAC case and have the module replaced.

Sir,
The error message means that Netflow TCAM has experienced a single bit parity error that the forwarding engine ECC has corrected. This condition can be transient in nature. However, if persistent it may indicate faulty mem. This seems to be coming from slot 3. You can attempt to reseat the card to allow GOLD diagnostics to test the module and verify if the condition continues. If it does, I recommend you open a Cisco Service Reqeust for further troubleshooting.

Hello,
Thank you for sharing this information.
I did a "diagnostic level complete" and then reseat the module 3 of the swtich 1. That's what our Cisco partner asked us to do. But we still get the same error message every second.
Could the module 3 be defect ? Is there any way to check the health of it ?
Thanks,
