The following is a list of possible reasons for this message; however, it is not all-inclusive:

A software failure has occurred in which a process has disabled interrupts long enough for 5 consecutive fabric pings to be missed. This condition indicates a problem with the software on the destination card.

The RP could not send a fabric ping to the specified line card. If a fabric ping cannot be sent for a number of consecutive times, the destination card will be reset.

The RP could not send data other than a fabric ping to the specified line card. If the data that has failed to be sent is not a fabric ping, the destination card will not be reset, but this condition may affect other functionality of the RP; for example, CEF might be disabled.

A hardware problem has occurred on the RP or GRP, in the fabric, or on the destination card. If the error was due to a hardware problem with the GRP, other IPC timeout messages would be logged before the fabric ping failure and entering the show contr fia command on the GRP would show errors, while entering the show contr fia command on the line card would not.

Recommended Action    Consider upgrading the system to the latest Cisco IOS software version in your release train to eliminate all resolved software problems.
