[c-nsp] sup720 / 6704 RELIABILITY DRIVER / weird ASIC msg (12.2.18 SXF2)

[Paul]

Single sup720-3bxl.   Tried different slot, even tried an entire 
different 6509 with same IOS SXF2..
Maybe something with the IOS, or a hardware revision of the chassis or 
sup module?

Looking it up on the search gets no results :/

I got the same message you got, except it didn't contain the fabric 
channel sync error, just the power off error, and this was with ANOTHER 
6704 module..
So two 6704 modules I tried , each different errors, would not work in 
either 6509 I have running SXF2. 

I got no errors putting it in a 6513, with SXH3 on it..

Will try SXF14, but I'm getting some TCAM errors with it which I'm about 
to post about :)
