Mailing List Archive: CSRAM Errors on CES/CER

Greetings,

Curious if anyone else is seeing CSRAM or egress buffer errors on CES/CER. Brocade has identified these as a hardware issue (possibly related to mysterious chip U77) and we have been RMAing the boxes.

So far we have seen about a 14% failure rate after being in service just a little over three years.

What were the symptoms of this?
