[c-nsp] Inserting 6704 card in 6500 causes reboot?

[Ed Butler]

I thought of power too, but I would expect the behaviour if there is not
enough power would be that the card simply doesn't get powered on. After
the reboot the system shows plenty of power spare with the new 10g card
running:

#sh power
system power redundancy mode = redundant
system power total =     2331.00 Watts (55.50 Amps @ 42V)
system power used =      1575.84 Watts (37.52 Amps @ 42V)
system power available =  755.16 Watts (17.98 Amps @ 42V)

I could think on power management issues.
