[c-nsp] More info on bugs CSCsi03864 & CSCsi49150

[Christina Klam]

All,

Last week our core router (a 6509) crashed. After reading the crashinfo
and the logs, we determined the the source of the crash to be CSCsi49150
(%PM-SP-4-PORT_BOUNCED: Port Gi2/3 was bounced by Consistency Check
IDBS).   

-----------

Conditions:
Not specific to standby. Seen on both active and standby. Seen in images
where fix for CSCsi03864 is present.

Workaround
None.

Further information:
This bug is to backout the bug CSCsi03864
-----------

Does anyone know more about these two bugs than what is in Bug Toolkit?
Currently, info on CSCsi03864 is reserved for cisco only eyes. So, I
have no info about it.   

The only solution given by Cisco is to upgrade from 12.2(33)SXH2 to SXH3
or SXH3a.  Because of the bugs in SXH3a that I have read this last week
on cisco-nsp, I am reluctant to do so.  I am hoping to wait until SXHi
comes out.  I just wish I knew more about the bugs so I could make a
more educated decision on the value of waiting.

Thanks,
