Resolved Caveats in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)EWA14
This section lists the resolved caveat in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)EWA14:
•
On a Catalyst 4500 series switch with either dual 4200W AC power supplies with one or both 220V connections, or a single 4200W AC power supply with two 220V connections, a power supply firmware glitch temporarily resets the status bits. It causes Catalyst 4500 IOS software to receive the false input voltage values (from 220V to 110V) and trigger the normal recovery routine.
You will see one or both of the following error messages:
*Mar 5 11:16:33.663 UTC: %C4K_CHASSIS-3-MIXINVOLTAGEDETECTED: Power supplies in the chassis are receiving different voltage inputs
*Mar 5 11:16:33.663 UTC: %C4K_CHASSIS-3-MIXINPOWERDETECTED: Power supplies in the chassis are of different types (AC/DC) or wattage
You may also see the following message:
%ILPOWER-5-ILPOWER_POWER_DENY: Interface Gi2/33: inline power denied
On ports with POE devices connected.
This glitch temporarily shuts down the affected power supply and causes a loss of power supply redundancy. Power for the data and chassis is decremented and might cause the linecard(s) to shut down. Power for PoE also will decrement, and it could cause PDs to shut down and reset.
Note the following:
–Only units with serial numbers starting from with AZS12200001 and higher do not experience this defect.
–If both power supplies have 110V inputs, they are not affected.
The output current will be lower with both 110V input connections, see
Power Supply Calculator on cisco.com at the URL http://tools.cisco.com/cpc/launch.jsp.
Workaround: None. (CSCso67729)
•A group of 4 ports on a PoE linecard might not recognize the IEEE phone device and might not provide inline power. The same device(s) may work in other ports on the same module; it may work with other ports of similar linecards in other slots on the same chassis.
The group(s) of ports on which the PoE devices do not power up may differ in every instance.
The problem has been observed with the following hardware combinations:
–4500 chassis, WS-X4013+=, WS-X4548-GB-RJ45V= (hw rev 4.0 & 4.1), 12.2(40)SG
–4500-E chassis WS-C45-Sup6-E, WS-X4548-GB-RJ45V= (hw rev 4.0 & 4.1), 12.2(40)SG
Note Cisco IP Phone is not affected as it can be detected via CDP.
Workaround: None. (CSCso29149)
•A Catalyst 4500 switch may experience a reload if you perform two or more
"write memory's via CLI" on the switch.
This occurs with Cisco IOS Releases 12.2(25)EWA13 and earlier releases, 12.2(31)SGA6 and earlier releases, and 12.2(4x)SG releases.
Workaround: Restrict vty access to one session and upgrade to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)EWA14 or 12.2(31)SGA7. (CSCso86459)
•On a Catalyst 4500 Supervisor Engine running Cisco IOS Releases 12.2(25)EWA13, or 12.2(31)SGA4 through 12.2(31)SGA6, you might receive the message
"NVRAM Verification Failed" and the running config might not be saved to the NVRAM.
Workaround: Upgrade to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)EWA14 or 12.2(31)SGA7. (CSCsq27434)
Here's the whole mess...
