Panic Errors
This module includes errors that cause a system panic to occur. A system panic
causes the switch to reboot. The PANIC error is stored in flash memory with a stack
trace, local stack content and local register content at the time the error occurred.
To view the trace, allow the switch to reboot and issue the
traceShow
command. If
the trace was caused by a PANIC error, the first line displays:
Reset reasons 0x100: Panic
PANIC errors have the highest severity (0).
NOTE: Use the
traceShow
command to identify PANIC errors as the
errShow
com-
mand is not useful in this case.
Panic errors are described in Table A-2.
MSG (3) The timer task
received an
unknown
message.
