Hi,

It might be that you are encountering a bug in Nexus-OS.  Open a ticket with TAC to help you resolve the issue.

A clear mac should not reload a box.  That is a code issue.

I have no experience with Nexus but wondered if you could set the device to reload in 10 like in IOS and then clear the MAC address table.  If it didn't restart after clearing the MAC table you could do reload cancel.  Although the bigger issue still remains its probably a bug.
