[c-nsp] fabric counters on 6500s

[Chris Griffin]

Can someone point me to some descriptive information about fabric errors 
and procedures to troubleshoot them.  Basically I am looking for 
descriptive information on:

show fabric errors
show fabric channel-counters
remote command switch show fabric errors

For instance, what do rxErrors mean on the channel counters, and how do 
they differ from errors shown by show fabric errors.  What is the best 
procedure to troubleshoot rxErrors under channel-counters.  I was told 
by TAC that any module in the system can cause rxErrors on any slot and 
channel, which I am skeptical of.  How do show fabric errors differ from 
the switch and msfc point of view.  So far I have yet to ever see an 
error under "show fabric errors", but they are not uncommon on the 
switch side.  Has anyone had an rxError problem so great that they had 
to swap the chassis?

Thanks!
