Symptoms

When trying to modify the interface admin status to disabled across five different interfaces on five blades in a VELOS partition in a single commit message, the CLI operation to update the state interface enabled field fails with an error "system call failed". "Failed to write 68 bytes to ConfD: Connection timed out".

Impact

Stale value for interface/state/enabled field.

Conditions

This can occur when a failover of chassis-controller and partition occurs, right before the interface enabled field changes.

Workaround

Enable and re-disable the interfaces.

Fix Information

With the fix, the interface/state/enabled field will reflect accurately the configuration admin status of the interface.
