Hi,
I have a couple of nexus 9372PX which are in VPC connected down stream to a few FEX 2248TP-E. One of the FEX's down link is continuously flapping since a couple of days continuously. Below are the necessary outputs of show commands. Please suggest what could be done.

Same problem over here, almost identical scenario, except my Nexus is a 5K series on one side and FEX C2248 on the other side.
The lapsus of time between disconnections is erratic (sometimes 10 min, sometimes 4 hs).
