Conditions

Seen when port-profile has command

vpc orphan-port suspend

and the interface which inherits this port-profile also has

vpc orphan-port suspend

configured explicitly.

Workaround

Do not configure

vpc orphan-port suspend

explicitly under the interface. If the NX-OS on the switch supports command

default interface ethernet 1/x

, it can be used as a workaround to default the interface.
