[c-nsp] 10 gig ethernet interface up, line protocol down on VSL connection

[Church, Charles]

Thanks Brad.  I did that step on both, both of them rebooted, but both come up as the active sup, since the VSL link won't come up.  The config on switch 2 is correct Reinhold, using port channel 20 and link 2 on that one.  I'll be back with the devices tomorrow morning, I'll dig through the logs and some other int troubleshooting tomorrow.

Charles,
FWIW, this happened to me once and it turned out I forgot the last  
step in the VSS conversion process:

'switch mode accept virtual'.

Cheers,
Brad
