Error Message%RSP-3-MSFIX: Fixing [chars] by setting to default [chars]Explanation The characters shown can be either on the slave RSP setting or on the master RSP setting.
The ROM monitor default slave RSP setting is not synchronized with the system configuration file specifications. During bootup, the system image detects the mismatch and modifies the ROM monitor setting to conform with these specifications.
This mismatch most likely occurred because a new RSP was being installed and booted in a high system availability (HSA) environment (dual RSPs) for the first time. Alternatively, in established HSA configurations, this message may result from a previous Interprocess Communication (IPC) error occurring while the HSA environment is reconfigured.
Recommended Action
1
2
If the slot number obtained in Step 1 is the same as the number obtained in Step 2, then no further action is required. You have configured HSA in simple hardware backup mode, and both RSPs are identical.
However, if the two slot numbers differ, you have configured HSA in software error protection mode, and will have different images running, depending on which RSP is currently the slave RSP. If the slot numbers discovered in Steps 1 and 2 differ, reload your router to ensure that the desired system image is running. After the reload, the actual slave RSP will match the default slave RSP specified in (or inferred from) the system configuration file.
For details of various HSA configuration modes consult the Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide. See the "Loading System Images and Configuration Files" chapter (Cisco 7500 series only).
Error Message%RSP-3-MSVERS: Master has m/s version [dec], slave has m/s version [dec]Explanation The master and slave are running incompatible software versions with regards to the master/slave exchange process.

If the slave is running the image from the bundle, execute and record the output of show version, show running-config, and show controller cbus commands. Report this information and the error message to your technical support representative.
