an interface (or fabric), when there is a change in bundle membership or when an ACL which is used
in a QoS policy is modified. The most likely cause of this error is not enough space remaining in
TCAM.
Recommended Action Try modifying QoS and ACL configuration to reduce TCAM usage. If TCAM
space doesn't seem to be the reason, try removing and re-applying the QoS policy. 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
%PKT_INFRA-FMGR-4-UIDB_SET_WARNING
Feature Mgr failed to program UIDB for QoS.
(reason: [chars])
Explanation Feature Mgr failed to program the correct QoS related information in UIDB (interface
data structure in hardware) when enabling/disabling QoS on the interface. The most likely cause of
this message is deletion of a vlan sub-interface when there is a qos policy attached on the parent
physical interface. In this case, the message is harmless and can be ignored. The reason this happens
is because, the feature_mgr process tries to reset QoS related flags in the UIDB, but by that time the
UIDB entry has already been deleted. It is possible, though very unlikely, for this message to appear
in the following cases: 1) A QoS policy is attached on an interface. 2) QoS policy is removed from
an interface. 3) Vlan-id is configured for a sub-interface and a QoS policy exists on the associated
physical interface. 4) Vlan-id is un-configured on a sub-interface and a QoS policy exists on the
associated physical interface. 5) When all members of a bundle go 'down'. In such cases, the
warning message indicates that there could be a problem in enabling/disabling QoS on the interface.
Recommended Action For case 5 mentioned above, message can be ignored. For cases 1, 3 try
removing and re-applying the QoS policy. For case 2, try applying the policy and removing it again.
For case 4, delete the sub-interface itself and if needed re-create it. 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
%PKT_INFRA-FMGR-7-INIT_ERROR

Recommended Action No action needed. Process will restart automatically. 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.

same before and after upgrade, else it would cause netio to take default action (to restart) for upgrade
to take effect.
Recommended Action This message indicates that netio will take default action to restart as fwd netio
dll does not support dll upgrade with different saved data length. No further action is needed.
Error Message
%PKT_INFRA-FWD_BASE_NETIO-5-UNSUP_MAJOR_VERSION

Error Message
%PKT_INFRA-PROTECT_NOTIFY-3-DRIVER_CONFIG
Config of i/f driver to generate fast
notifictaions failed: [chars] - [chars]
Explanation Configuration of interface driver to generate traffic protection fast notifications failed.
Fast (e.g. sub 50ms) protection is not available for interfaces on the affected linecard. Note that
while the traffic fast protection is affected in terms of speed, in the absence of additional errors the

SVII_ADJ_LIB Messages
Error Message
%PKT_INFRA-SVII_ADJ_LIB-3-ADJ_DATA_CORRUPT
The SVI Adjacency Manager was
provided with corrupt adjacency data for [chars] SSC belonging to service [chars]
on location [chars]
Explanation Either the active or standby Service State Controller for the location given in the
message provided the Adjacency Manager with corrupt data. This most likely indicates a bug in the
Service State Controller logic. No adjacencies will be installed for the named service, so no traffic
will be forwarded to or from it.
Recommended Action 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
%PKT_INFRA-SVII_ADJ_LIB-3-FOLLOW_STANDBY_MISMATCH
The SVI Adjacency Manager was
provided with conflicting settings for installing adjacencies for interface [hex]
Explanation Conflicting 'follow standby' instructions were supplied to the Adjacency Manager for
an interface. 'Follow standby' is specified for an interface by a Service State Controller if it believes
that traffic should be directed towards the standby, rather than active, service instance. This message
indicates that the active and standby Service State Controllers gave conflicting information about
where traffic to be directed to. This indicates an inconsistency between the system state as viewed
by the Service State Controllers that are responsible for the service to which the interface belongs.
Restarting those processes may help, after allowing any other problems that could lead to
inconsistencies being resolved. No adjacencies will be installed for the interface, and all traffic to it
will be dropped.
Recommended Action 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
%PKT_INFRA-SVII_ADJ_LIB-3-INIT_FAILED
Initialization failed, module: [chars],

and automatically restart.
Recommended Action 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
%PKT_INFRA-SVII_ADJ_LIB-3-SERVICE_FAILED
An error occurred while setting up
adjacencies for service '[chars]': [chars]
Explanation The SVII Adjacency Manager encountered an error while preparing to set up
adjacencies for the specified service. It is likely that packets will not be forwarded to interfaces for
that service. This may be caused by a lack of resources or other system problems. Restarting the
'svi_adj_mgr' process on the affected node (after any other problems have been cleared up) will
restore adjacencies for the affected service.
Recommended Action 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
%PKT_INFRA-SVII_ADJ_LIB-4-INTF_DB_INCONSISTENT
An inconsistency has been found
in the interface database (interface handle [hex])
Explanation An inconsistency has been found in the adjacency manager interface database. The
adjacency manager will automatically recover from this; nevertheless it may indicate a software
error.
Recommended Action 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
%PKT_INFRA-SVII_ADJ_LIB-4-REFRESH_FAILED
An error occurred while requesting
adjacency refresh for service '[chars]': [chars]
Explanation The SVII Adjacency Manager encountered an error while resynchronising its
adjacencies. The adjacencies for the specified service may not be correctly set up on the specified
card, meaning that traffic for that service arriving at that card may not be forwarded correctly.
Recommended Action Restarting the 'svi_adj_mgr' process on the affected node (after any other
problems - such as lack of memory - have been cleared up) will restore adjacencies for the affected
service. 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
%PKT_INFRA-SVII_ADJ_LIB-4-RESTART_FAILED
An error occurred while trying to
restart cleanly: [chars]
Explanation The SVII Adjacency Manager encountered an error while preparing to restart itself. It
will restart itself anyway, but there may be other errors.
Recommended Action 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
%PKT_INFRA-SVII_ADJ_LIB-4-SDIR_INVALID
The Service Director library passed
invalid parameters to the SVII Adjacency Manager process.
Explanation The Service Director process/library sent an invalid message to the SVII Adjacency
Manager. This indicates a problem with the Service Director. It is likely that packets will not be
correctly forwarded to some Service Virtual Interfaces.
Recommended Action It may help to restart the SVII Adjacency Manager and/or the Service Director
processes. 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
%PKT_INFRA-SVII_ADJ_LIB-4-SRV_CLEANUP_FAILED
The SVI Adjacency Manager 'publish'
library encountered an error when trying to clean up after a service unregistered.
Error [chars]
Explanation A Service owner tried to revoke a request for adjacencies to be managed by the SVI
Adjacency Manager. It is likely that the originally published request has not been cleaned up
correctly. This should not have any adverse effects, other than the use of some additional resouces,
but probably indicates some kind of programming error.
Recommended Action 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.
SVII_ADJ_MGR Messages
Error Message
%PKT_INFRA-SVII_ADJ_MGR-3-ADJ_FAILED
An error occurred while trying to program
an adjacency: [chars] (interface handle=[hex])
Explanation The SVII Adjacency Manager encountered an error while programming an adjacency.
Packets may not be forwarded to the affected service interface. The name of the interface can be
retrieved with 'show im chains ifhandle 0xabc', where '0xabc' is the interface handle shown in the
message.
Recommended Action This error should only arise due to resource constraints (eg memory).
Determine which resources are short, and make more available; then restart the 'svi_adj_mgr'
process on the affected node.
Error Message
%PKT_INFRA-SVII_ADJ_MGR-3-ECM_ERROR_FAILED
An error occurred while trying to
recover from a previous failure: [chars]
Explanation The SVII Adjacency Manager encountered an error while calling AIB. Normally, it
would recover from this error. However, a secondary failure has occurred while invoking the
recovery mechanism. After this error, packets may not be forwarded correctly for some service
virtual interfaces.
Recommended Action The system can be recovered by restarting the 'svi_adj_mgr' process on the
affected node. 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.
