On the topic of OIR, we've found that we can avoid the router-wide
cbus stall/restart due to VIP crash/reload or OIR with the command:
"service single-slot-reload-enable"
This command showed up in a fairly recent version of 12.0(n)S.
We've been running a 7513 BGP border router on 12.0(15)S1 with single
slot reload enabled and have had a couple of VIP reload situations
(parity error crash/reload, card insert) which have gone much better
than they used to in the past.
As always, YMMV.
