Hi Gert, The only 6500 devices we ever had problems with after a reboot are the ME-C6524GT-8S. We've had plenty that were failing. Although that's probably not due to the memory bug. The two copper port groups are affected (1-12, 12-24). Either one of them or both can fail after a reboot and remain dead. Funny enough online diagnostics only reports a "minor error" :)
Mod Online Diag Status ---- ------------------- 1 Minor Error With Sup32, Sup720 or Sup2T we haven't had any issues so far, at least none that I can remember :) Cheers, Chris On 31/10/14 10:47, Gert Doering wrote:
Hi, there's the infamous cisco memory bug "reboot and see your boxes die" - with the recent IOS software fixes, I have a couple of 6500s that need a reboot now, and I'm a bit scared - read: do I plan for "I reboot as usual, and there is a remote chance that hardware will not come back, so ensure a longer-than-planned outage is acceptable", or "I really should have a full set of spare boards sitting beside the to-be-rebooted box, because 90% of all boards will die"...? What are *your* experiences with dieing cisco memory, in particular on 6500s? I've heard horror storries from ASA owners, but not very much from 6500 owners yet... (and that's not because "nobody but me is using them anymore"). The advisory http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/memory.html#~impacted is not very specific... gert _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
