We are running Cisco WISM-2 controllers, code 7.4.110.0 at 11AM this
morning all our clients were dropped and could not reconnect.

To get the clients back online we manually failed all access points to a
secondary controller.   This worked great for about 30 minutes then all the
clients were dropped off again.

At this point we experienced a total wireless outage.


In the logs we see the following errors:

In order to get something back online we rebooted one of the WISMs, failed
50% of the AP's back to the newly rebooted WISM.    At this point both
controllers started working.


TAC was online with us the entire time.  They are still reviewing the logs,
but at this point they have no idea what the problem is (was).


Controller uptime was 22 days, memory around 30-40%, cpu 5-10%, 5000-6000
active clients.


This just happened, we are still reviewing all the logs, graphs, stats,
etc...   I wanted to post this up right now just to see if anyone else has
experienced an issue like this.  Once TAC gets back with us, I will post
additional updates.

Thanks,
