[c-nsp] Cisco 7507 RSP4 with 2* Vip2-50

[Frank Kempermann]

Hello,

we have a 7507 Router with two Vip2-50. Now I equipped the Vip's with 128MB
each. So, on each Vip are currently:

Controller Memory Size: 128 MBytes DRAM, 4096 KBytes SRAM
        PA Bay 0 Information:
                Mx Serial PA, 8 ports
                EEPROM format version 1
                HW rev 1.13, Board revision A0
                Serial number: 11557460  Part number: 73-1582-05 
        PA Bay 1 Information:
                Fast-Ethernet PA, 2 ports, 100BaseTX-ISL
                EEPROM format version 1
                HW rev 1.01, Board revision A0
                Serial number: 12377844  Part number: 73-2618-02

and
 
Controller Memory Size: 128 MBytes DRAM, 4096 KBytes SRAM
        PA Bay 0 Information:
                ENHANCED ATM E3 PA, 1 ports,FRU: PA-A3-E3
                EEPROM format version 1
                HW rev 2.01, Board revision B0
                Serial number: 14319733  Part number: 73-2434-04 
        PA Bay 1 Information:
                Fast-Ethernet PA, 2 ports, 100BaseTX-ISL
                EEPROM format version 1
                HW rev 1.01, Board revision A0
                Serial number: 12377793  Part number: 73-2618-02

When I configure ip cef distributed the linecards go up at first, but then:

rpocore#sh cef linecard 
 Slot/CPU  MsgSent    XDRSent  Window   LowQ   MedQ  HighQ Flags
 1            3234     177376 LC wait      0      0      0 disabled
 4            3235     177369 LC wait      0      0      0 disabled

Let's have a look at the logging: 

Jan 21 10:59:00: %FIB-3-FIBDISABLE: Fatal error, slot/cpu 1/0: no memory Jan
21 10:59:01: %FIB-3-FIBDISABLE: Fatal error, slot/cpu 4/0: no memory Jan 21

My question is: can this be an IOS-related problem? I use version
12.2(18)S8.
Where else can I look to investigate on the problem further? Suggestions?
