PLATFORM_CAT2950-3-MEM_COPY_FAILURE: Invalid copy [dec] for table [chars].

Explanation This message means that there was an attempt to read or write an invalid copy of the switch internal memory. [dec] is the invalid copy number for the table, and [chars] is the name of the ASIC memory table.

Response If the message recurs, find out more about the error by using the show tech-supportprivileged EXEC command and by copying the error message exactly as it appears on the console or system log and entering it in the Output Interpreter tool. Use the Bug Toolkit to look for similar reported problems. For more information about these online tools , see the “Error Message Traceback Reports” section on page .9

PLATFORM_CAT2950-3-MEM_INDEX_FAILURE: Invalid index [dec] for table [chars].

Explanation This message means that there was an attempt to access an invalid index of the switch internal memory. [dec] is the index number, and [chars] is the name of the ASIC memory table.

Response If the message recurs, find out more about the error by using the show tech-supportprivileged EXEC command and by copying the error message exactly as it appears on the console or system log and entering it in the Output Interpreter tool. Use the Bug Toolkit to look for similar reported problems. For more information about these online tools , see the “Error Message Traceback Reports” section on page .9

PLATFORM_CAT2950-3-MEM_INIT_FAILURE: The switch memory resources could not be allocated for [chars], initialization failed.

Explanation This message means that, during the switch driver initialization, driver-related memory resources could not be allocated, which might occur because of an ASIC defect. [chars] can be asic instance, switch ports, fast-ethernet queues, or gigabit queues.

Response Find out more about the error by using the show tech-supportprivileged EXEC command and by copying the error message exactly as it appears on the console or system log and entering it in the Output Interpreter tool. Use the Bug Toolkit to look for similar reported problems. For more information about these online tools , see the “Error Message Traceback Reports” section on page .9

PLATFORM_CAT2950-3-MEM_READ_FAILURE: Read memory failed for memory [chars] at index [dec].

Explanation This message means that an attempt to read a valid location in the internal chip memory failed, which might occur because of an ASIC defect. [chars] is the name of the ASIC memory table, and [dec] is the table index.

Response If the message recurs, find out more about the error by using the show tech-supportprivileged EXEC command and by copying the error message exactly as it appears on the console or system log and entering it in the Output Interpreter tool. Use the Bug Toolkit to look for similar reported problems. For more information about these online tools , see the “Error Message Traceback Reports” section on page .9
