CAPI_EC-4
Error Message %CAPI_EC-4-GROUP_RATE_LIMITED: Adding interfaces of the same
port-group ([dec]-[dec]) on [chars] to an etherchannel will not increase the
channel throughput!
Explanation Because ports on the specified slot use oversubscription, the total throughput of the port
channel is limited by the port group.
Recommended Action If more throughput is required, either use ports from a line card that does not
use oversubscription, or use ports from different line cards or port groupings on oversubscribed line
cards. For example, if the line card has 48 ports in groups of 8, you can select ports 1, 9, 17, 25, 33,
and 41 for the same port channel.
Error Message %CAPI_EC-4-RATE_LIMITED: Adding [chars] interfaces to an etherchannel

Error Message %CWAN_RP-4-MODULE_CONFIG_MISSING: configuration missing for slot [int]
Explanation Some information is missing regarding the configuration of the module in the specified
slot. Any startup configuration for the interfaces will not be applied. If the module in the specified
slot is a FlexWAN, details about the port adapters in the FlexWAN are missing from the
configuration information. This information is missing from the SLOTCACHE ROMMON
variable.
Recommended Action If the module in the slot specified in the error message has not previously been
inserted, it has no previous configuration; therefore, no action is required. If the configuration for
the specified slot in the startup configuration is suitable for the module in that slot, after the module
has loaded, manually apply the configuration by using one of the following two methods. The
second method requires a system reload.
–
Enter the copy nvram:startup-config system:running-config command to reapply your saved configuration, then enter the no shutdown command on all interfaces whose configuration was rejected, and then enter the copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config command to save your configuration and the WAN module slot configuration.
–
Enter the copy command to copy your startup configuration to a temporary location (for example, copy nvram:startup-config bootflash:tmp-config), then enter the copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config command to update the WAN module slot configuration, then enter the copy command to restore the temporary copy of the startup-config (for example, copy bootflash:tmp-config nvram:startup-config), and then enter the reload command to reload the system.
After using the second method, you may want to use the delete command to remove the temporary copy of the startup-config. To prevent this condition from recurring, ensure that the SLOTCACHE variable is updated whenever modules that require it (FlexWANs, but not OSMs) are moved between slots in the chassis. The SLOTCACHE variable is updated when the running-config is written to the startup-config using the copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config command (or the deprecated write memory equivalent). The two methods of restoring the configuration for the module shown above ensure that the SLOTCACHE variable is updated.

OSPF Messages
This section contains Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) messages.
OSPF-4
Error Message %OSPF-4-FLOOD_WAR: Process [dec] [chars] LSA ID [IP_address]
type-[dec] adv-rtr [IP_address] in area [chars]
Explanation The system is re-originating or flushing the link-state advertisement (LSA) reported by
this error message.
Recommended Action If this router is flushing the network LSA, then the router received a network
LSA whose LSA ID conflicts with the IP address of one of the router's interfaces, and the router has
flushed the LSA out of the network. For OSPF to function correctly, the IP addresses of transit
networks must be unique. There is a conflict between this router and the router with the OSPF router
ID reported as adv-rtr in this message. If this router is reoriginating an LSA, another router is
probably flushing this LSA from the network. Locate that router and resolve the conflict. Conflict
for type-2 LSA may be due to duplicate LSA ID; for type-5 LSA, there may be a duplicate router-id
on this router and on the routers connected to the different area.

RF Messages
This sections contains redundancy feature (RF) messages.
RF-3
Error Message %RF-3-FAILED_SET_RED_MODE: ACTIVE failed to set redundancy mode.
STANDBY has selected mode but unable to get confirmation from ACTIVE.
Explanation Under normal conditions, the standby route processor (RP) has selected the redundancy
mode and sends its decision to active RP. The active RP uses it to determine the system mode and
sends the final decision on the mode back to standby RP. This system message indicates that the
exchange has failed, and the standby RP does not have the right redundancy mode to proceed.
Recommended Action Allow the standby RP to reset once. If the problem persists, verify that all
modules are working properly.
Error Message %RF-3-NON_HA_SWITCHOVER: The SP switchover was NOT stateful. To
support SSO on the RP, the SP must be configured with HA enabled.
Explanation The switch processor switchover that occurred was not stateful. Stateful switchover
mode on the route processor requires the switch processor to run with high availability (HA) enabled
to ensure that appropriate state is synchronized between the switch processors and that there is
sufficient state information on the new active switch processor to support the switchover of the route
processor while in stateful switchover mode. The recovery is to reset and reboot the route processor,
because there is insufficient state information to support a route processor switchover in stateful
switchover mode.
Recommended Action Configure the SP to enable HA. If HA is enabled, it is possible that resource
exhaustion (such as memory) might have caused this non-HA switchover. If the problem persists,
contact Cisco technical support representative for further analysis.
Error Message %RF-3-PEER_RP_RELOAD: The peer Route Processor (RP) is being reset
because [chars]

Error Message %RF-3-WAKEUP_STANDBY_NOT_SEEN: Active-Standby RP Handshake Error. The
Standby RP did not receive a WAKEUP_STANDBY message from the Active RP during the
early initialization phase on the Standby RP.
Explanation As part of the early initialization phase, the standby route processor (RP) asks the active
RP to awaken it when the active RP is ready to support the standby RP. The active RP has failed to
awaken the standby RP. The active RP may have failed during the standby RP's early initialization
phase or some other error has prevented the active RP from completing this handshake.
Recommended Action The standby RP will be restarted. If the problem persists, restart the system.
RF-6
Error Message %RF-6-STANDBY_READY: The Standby RP has reached HOT-STANDBY state and
is now ready for stateful switchover.
