Cisco Switching/Routing :: 6509E - Installing And Setting Up Second Sup720

Feb 27, 2013

Trying to find documentation on the proper procedure for installing a second sup720 into our 6509-E chassis for sup redundancy. I have found documents that tout how 'cool' and 'awesome' NSF/SSO, and all that is, but haven't found any docs on installing a second sup720 into a chassis that is currently in production and is only running one sup720. In all the years that this chassis has been out, there must me a documented procedure out here to explain this.I have been through the following pages, and have found nothing to this effect.

Cisco WAN :: Cat 6500 IOS Upgrade - Installing Secondary SUP720 In 6509-E

Nov 21, 2011

I will be installing a secondary SUP720 in a 6509-E and will be upgrading the IOS on the existing SUP which is on  122-18.SXF6. I've read that this release has passed End of Critical Maintenance earlier this you. I thinking of upgrading the IOS to 12.2.33-SXJ1(ED) or 12.2.33-SXI8(ED) (possible more stable), but i'm not sure if i need any step upgrades from the current version. The SUP meets the required hardware specs and I will also be upgrading the ROMMON to 12.2(17r)SX7 first.
 
I have alot of experience upgrading IOS on routers and switches, but i just need to now if there are any gotchas that i need to know for the upgrade on the SUP.
 
The other issue is i don't believe the current IOS has been installed, are there any issue running on an IOS not installed. Patching is not available since the system is not running from an installed image. To install please use the "install file" command.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 10G Upgrade For 6509E

Dec 9, 2012

I have a couple of 6509-E combined in a VSS system. I need to upgrade them to support 8 (or 16 at max) 10G uplinks. I already used the two built-in VS-S720-10G fiber connectors for VSL links. Which Ethernet modules do you suggest to use? are there any related upgrades that I have to do?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Migrating Cat 6503-E VSS To Cat 6509E VSS

Aug 7, 2012

I want to migrate a Cat 6503-E VSS to Cat 6509E VSS. We plan to use the same supervisor that we have on the Cat6503E, for minimizing the configuration change on the Doing this, the vss link will need to be changed, due to the fact that the supervisor slot will change with the Cat 6509, slot 5 instead of 1.

Question: is there a way to just change the vsl-link interface on a existing VSS ?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Isolating Two Different VLANs With Subnets On 6509E Sup 2T

Oct 1, 2012

I have a pair of Core VSS 6509E SUP 2T. Two different LANs, two diff. Subnets. larger LAN has been connected to the VSS pair usng normal SVI and Post-Channles (has lots of closets 3750 stacks) and no problem. Second LAN, two closets, stacked and connected to each other via Port channel and trunk + SVI interfaces. Now, I have SVI interfaces for both LANs on teh VSS pair and that is causing traffic from one LAN to jump over to the other VLAN and rightly so because the VSS pair see both subnets as directly connected subnets. I was wondring if I delete the SVI for the second LAN and only keep the L2 VLAN this will be resolved> The reason for the second LAN to connect to the VSs pair is only that It has to go through the VSS pair to get to the WAN router (both LANs will go out through this Same WAN router) but WAN router is not my concern at this time. I need to isolate these two LANs/subnets traffic so no one VLAM traffic jumps over the other.I have also thought about VRF but at this point I am not sure if teh 3750 stacks supports VRF and if it does how to implement VRF on the second and samller LAN to just allow it go through the VSS pair in order to get to the WAn router.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Cat 6509E 6Kw PS AC Input Level Verification

I have a 6509E switch with dual 6Kw power supply that is logging "Power supply 1 input has changed.  Power capacity adjusted to 2671.20W" then will bounce back to normal at random times from 1sec to 10sec. Is there a command to check what each input level of the power supply to try to identify possibly which source is causing the problem? The power supply input lights remains green while this is occuring.

Not sure if this is related or not but it seems that after we upgraded to the later ios that the latency started.over the last 24 hours the spike is several times an hour and at least one a day that it hits the 90 - 100 % mark.is there a way that we can limit what snmp view but would not effect functionality or network?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 6509E - Purpose Of ROMmon F1 And F2 And Gold Regions

Apr 27, 2012

On my 6509-E, all the modules show this:
Region F1: INVALID
Region F2: INVALID
Currently running ROMMON from S (Gold) region
 
Is this alright? Is the Gold region like a default region where ROMMON is always installed. And are F1 and F2 just storage partitions that are available to hold backup copies of the ROMMON? From what I read, it sounds like I can copy ROMMON images to F1 and F2, either the same version as the Gold region or different versions. Is that correct? Why would I want to copy different ROMMON versions to F1 and F2?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: SUP720 - Unable To Boot From Disk0

May 26, 2012

Customer is using SUP720 with SP rommon image version 8.1(3), he is trying to boot the new ios image from disk0, but he gets invalid magic error. he fomat the disk0 but still he gets error when he boots from disk0. He suspect that it can't be flash problem but can be software of hardware as he has two flash with same issue on 2 switches.
 
Customer wanted to recreate, I tried in the lab, i was able to load from disk0, but sup in lab had 8.5(4).
 
Customer wanted me try with 8.1(3) version. But i was unable to downgrade the SP Rommon image. SP rommon is running in Gold region and I loaded the 8.1(3) from both disk0 and sup-bootdisk, even preferrence was given to region1 but still sup came up with gold region itself.

* Will i be able to downgrade from 8.5(4) to 8.1(3), if so, what are the steps.

* is there any limitation or bug where  8.1(3) will be unable to read disk0.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 6506E - Sup720 BootVar Not Shown

Jun 4, 2013

I'm trying to boot this IOS on a 6506-E, s72033-adventerprisek9_wan-mz.122-33.SXI8.bin.
 
This is what I see in bootvar.
 
sh bootvar
BOOT variable = disk0:s72033-adventerprisek9_wan-mz.122-33.SXI8.bin,1;disk0:s72033-ipservicesk9-mz.122-18.SXF8.bin,1;
CONFIG_FILE variable =
BOOTLDR variable =
Configuration register is 0x2102
 
Standby not ready to show bootvar, I want to remove SXF8 and leave SXI8 alone. I removed both IOS file names in boot system and added the SXI8 again and saved. So this would be the output after.
 
But after a switch restart, this would be the output of show bootvar again.
 
sh bootvar
BOOT variable = disk0:s72033-adventerprisek9_wan-mz.122-33.SXI8.bin,1;disk0:s72033-ipservicesk9-mz.122-18.SXF8.bin,1;
CONFIG_FILE variable =
BOOTLDR variable =
Configuration register is 0x2102
 
Is there anything I need to check? This is an old engine and I'm not sure if the variables of the RP modified .

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 6509E Port-channel Flapping When Two More Links Are Added?

Sep 11, 2012

I have two Core 6509E SUP2T configued as VSS and has two 48 ports fiber blades. I have two 3750s, I have two gig on each 3750 port-channle to po1 and connected to both the core, one link to each core.Now, I was asked ot add two more links on each 3750 switch to make it a total of 4 gigs on each 3750s (all 4 gig ports/uplinks will be in used an dtwo links to core one an dtwo links to core 2).when i added two additional links on 3750s and bundled them to po1, I created another port channel on core and bundeled the additional two gigs on each core to accomodate for the two additional links (ports on core switches are not consequtives).
 
adding these two additional ports makes the 3750 switches flap between managemnet vlan and po1.now, i am not sure if I must have added the two additional links on the core to teh current port-channel or core!? I have created another port-channel on core to accomodate for this currently!?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Large Number Of Queue Output Drops On 6509E

Apr 3, 2013

we have two 6509E, as our core switches. Recently I noticed that on some connections I have a high output queue drop rate.
 
These 4 x 2 interfaces (gigabit) are connected to our blade encolure, consisting of 4 x WS-CBS3120X-S. The utilization of the links is really quite low, when I see the increase of the drops. (~=60Mbps). All the links are fiber (SFP) and the distance between the core switches and the enclosure is about 15-20m.
 
I am not aware of any service degradation on the part of the servers. No CRCs, collisions etc, on the interfaces, apart from the drops.
 
The line card is a WS-X6748-SFP, but other interfaces don't seem to be experiencing any problems.
