Dear expert,
I have problem experiencing partial network outages in my one Catalyst
6509-E. It happens many times in almost 2 months, and when it happens
partial network outage takes about 10 minutes (LAN and WAN traffic down).
I have a suspect that something is not right for the dual supervisor
redundancy (when doing switchover). I also noticed that the standby Sup in
slot 6 shows 'Minor Error'. I went to the 'Error Message Decoder' at
cisco.com to interpret the error messages from the log, but it says: no
action is required. For details i enclose the log from the switch.
