CI Messages

The following are Cisco 7500 platform chassis interface (CI) error messages.

Error Message  

%CI-1-BLOWSHUT : Blower failure, shutdown in [dec] seconds

Explanation    One of the six blowers in a five-slot chassis has failed. All blowers are needed for router operation because each blower cools a separate region of the card(s) in the chassis. If a blower failure persists for 2 minutes, the router will shut itself down and will need to be power cycled.

Recommended Action    Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log, contact your Cisco technical support representative, and provide the representative with the gathered information.

Error Message  

%CI-6-BPLANE : CI type [int] differs from NVRAM type [int]

Explanation    The chassis type as reported by the CI is different from the chassis type programmed into NVRAM.

Recommended Action    Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log, contact your Cisco technical support representative, and provide the representative with the gathered information.

Error Message  

%CI-4-COND : Restarting with [int] recent soft power shutdowns
(or system just powered-on)

Explanation    The router is restarting after a soft shutdown because of an over temperature condition. The router has determined that the temperature rose above the board shutdown trip point, and a soft shutdown has occurred. The power supplies, fans, and CI continue to run.

The router is restarting because the system has cooled below the board restart trip point. A counter is started after the first time the router is shut down because of an over temperature condition. If the router shuts down and restarts repeatedly, the router will undergo a hard shutdown, which requires a power cycle to recover. The counter will be reset to zero when the router has been up for six hours and the router temperature has not risen above the board shutdown trip point.

Recommended Action    Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log, contact your Cisco technical support representative, and provide the representative with the gathered information.

Error Message  

%CI-1-CORETEMPCRITICAL : Core CRITICAL Temperature limit exceeded

Explanation    The temperature of the processor card has exceeded the critical limit. An automatic shutdown will occur if the temperature exceeds the critical limit for more than two minutes. The possible causes of this error are a malfunctioning fan or a short circuit on the processor card.

Recommended Action    Check the temperature of the processor card and determine that the fan is not malfunctioning. Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log, contact your Cisco technical support representative, and provide the representative with the gathered information.

Error Message  

%CI-3-CORETEMPMAJOR : Core Major Temperature limit exceeded

Explanation    The temperature of the processor card has exceeded the major limit. The possible causes of this error are a malfunctioning fan or a short circuit on the processor card.

Recommended Action    Check the temperature of the processor card and determine that the fan is not malfunctioning. Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log, contact your Cisco technical support representative, and provide the representative with the gathered information.

Error Message  

%CI-3-CORETEMPMINOR : Core Minor Temperature limit exceeded

Explanation    The temperature of the processor card has exceeded the minor limit. The possible causes of this error are a malfunctioning fan or a short circuit on the processor card.

Recommended Action    Check the temperature of the processor card and determine that the fan is not malfunctioning. Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log, contact your Cisco technical support representative, and provide the representative with the gathered information.

Error Message  

%CI-2-ENVCRIT : [chars] measured at [chars]

Explanation    One of the measured environmental test points has exceeded an extreme threshold.

Recommended Action    Correct the specified condition or the router may shut itself down or fail to operate properly.

Error Message  

%CI-4-ENVWARN : [chars] measured at [chars]

Explanation    A voltage or temperature measurement is out of range. This error is normally caused by a hardware problem, specifically the power supply or the fan; however, this error could also be caused by a software failure.

Recommended Action    If a redundant power supply is present in the system, test each redundant power supply one by one and see if this message is coming from one of them. Also verify the status of your electrical power source. If these steps do not help, try to reseat the chassis interface. If the problem persists, replace the affected equipment (the power supply or the fan).

Explanation    An LSP was received either for IS-IS or NLSP, which failed an internal data checksum, but which passed the data-link checksum. The interface on which the LSP was received is indicated, along with the total count of checksum errors received, the LSP ID, and the level of the failing LSP. Usually this message indicates data corruption occurring on a link but also might indicate data corruption in the memory of a neighboring router.

Recommended Action    If the error is in the memory of a neighboring router, the problem will correct itself within 15 minutes. That router will detect its internal error and regenerate the corrupted data. This case is usually indicated by a single LSP ID appearing repeatedly in these messages. The same LSP ID might appear in this message on other routers as well. If data-link corruption has caused the error, check the link for errors and deal with them appropriately. This case is usually indicated by a number of different LSP IDs appearing in these messages.
