Opened: Jan 10, 2017 Severity: 3-Major
An internal traffic stoppage occurs and causes LACP ACTIVE trunk members to go down, and CMP state changes for the HOST and vCMP guests (if configured) on the impacted blade. The tmctl detailed statistics show sustained TX pause generated by HSB on one or more links and matching RX Pause received in interface_stat (on 4.1, 4.2, 4.3).
Traffic no longer functions on the blade where stoppage occurs.
-- This happens when using 2150 or 2250 blades and an internal FPGA device gets into a bad state under heavy traffic load. -- The root cause of that is still under investigation. -- It happens extremely rarely.
Reboot blade.
