Hi,
 
Any ideas, what "Next SPF run wait" actually means in the following output? It is a large negative value which is increasing by absolute value (will never reach zero).
 
It looks like it never runs SFP as the box doesn't install new routes. I see that it learns the LSAs but it never uses them as routes: show ip routes / show ip ospf routes don't show theses routes, while I see the corresponding LSAs in the OSPF DB. All the neighbor state machinery works well. But active routes are never updated even if an interfaces and a corresponding neighbor fail.

I checked other NetIron boxes (CERs and MLXes) but this line is just not present in the output.
 
We saw this behavior on another CERs, fixed this by a reboot. Unfortunately I don't have "show ip ospf" before the reboot from those boxes, now this line (Next SFP run wait) is just not present on the rebooted boxes.
 
Looks like a bug, but maybe I am missing something. Can't it be something like SPF throttling and maybe there is a way to clear this state less disruptively? On the other hand, "clear ip ospf all" did not help yesterday.
