Conditions

This issue has been seen on 5.2(3a) and 6.0(4). It is triggered as a result of a supervisor failover.

Workaround

The switch must be reloaded to clear the condition. Once the switch comes back after the reload, you can reapply the diff of "show running-config" and "show startup-config". Or, you can copy your config to a TFTP server, and then copy it back to the switch after the reload. This issue is fixed in NX-OS version 6.1(1)
