PLIM_CLKSEL Messages
Error Message     
%L1-PLIM_CLKSEL-3-ERR_INIT PLIM process is restarted because of a failure in Clock Selection Library initialization: ([chars]/[chars]).
Explanation The initilaization of the Clock Selection Library failed. The Clock Selection Library is used by the physical layer interface module (PLIM) driver on the linecard. The PLIM driver creates the SONET controller and POS interface, handling the all the SONET event, applying SONET/POS configuration to the layer-1 device hardware. If the PLIM driver fails to initialize, no traffic will pass, therefore no higher level protocol will work. %s - indicates the reason for the failure %s - is the decoded error reason
Recommended Action The System Manager process (sysmgr) will automatically respawn the PLIM process, up to a fixed number of times when this error is encountered, to recover. Execute 'show process process name location 0/x/cpu0' to verify that the process is up and running, where process name equals 'pl_e48_pos_4p_oc12' for OC12 linecard; 'pl_e48_pos_1p_oc48' for OC48 linecard; If it is still non-operational, try to do a manually process restart with CLI: 'process restart location 0/x/cpu0'. If the message recurs, copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log, call your Cisco technical support representative and provide the representative with the gathered information.
Error Message

SPA_OC3_OC12 Messages Error Message %L1-SPA_OC3_OC12-3-ERR_IF [chars] Explanation The SPA driver on the linecard failed to call SONET controll or POS interface related system function. The issue may affect the creation of SONET controller or POS interface while the SPA is booting, reloading or SFP OIR with different optics rate. %s - error message indicating location and the reason of the error Recommended Action - Try to do the SFP OIR for a few more times; - If the issue persists, reload the SPA with the command: hw-module subslot 0/x/x reload then check if all the POS interface are created, if not, reload LC. If the message recurs, copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log, call your Cisco technical support representative and provide the representative with the gathered information. Error Message %L1-SPA_OC3_OC12-3-ERR_PLUGIN [chars] Explanation The operation on SPA object failed. The SPA driver controls all the hardware on the SPA.
