As part of our troubleshooting to resolve the WiSM crashes, we also upgraded the IOS on our 6509 to 12.2(18)SXF5, as the controller code v4.0.179.8 states that this is the minimum IOS version required. Nevertheless, this upgrade to the 6509 didn't make a difference. The problem is with the controller code.

We have three WiSM blades in Cisco 6509 chassis and we were running 12.2(18)SXF4 on it with WiSM version 4.0.155.5. Eventually, we were told to upgrade to 12.2(18)SXF5 and WiSM version 4.0.179.8 which also caused us to upgrade our WCS software. We still have an open Cisco TAC case about this. It has only been three days since our big night of upgrades. We really don't know for sure that this has fixed the problem, but we have heard from other sources that the problem was really with the IOS version we were running. We have not had any crashes yet. I hope this helps. If you have any more questions about this, please reply quickly as I will be out of town with no email for a little over a week starting tomorrow.
