[evla-sw-discuss] Switch error May 24th

[James Robnett]

We got another of those switch memory reference count errors on
the main site switch at 15:25:06 MDT on May 24th (friday).

I see no evidence it caused any down stream problems but it means
the IOS upgrade didn't help.

Can somebody describe what was going on with the instrument at
that time ?  Anything (scan boundary, config change, etc) that might
cause a burst of traffic.

I'm more suspicious of rare OS bug than hardware fault. If that's the
case it might be related to our traffic pattern,  i.e. bursty but
synchronized traffic, particularly multicast packets.
