[c-nsp] Cisco 7606 RSP720 - no SVI bit/packets counters

[Dean Belev]

Hi all,

Another strange Cisco behavior - or may be unknown one.
Creating SVI interface with a lot of traffic passing through - nothing 
suspicious.
Until ...

#######

All counters but RXBS/RXPS/TXBS/TXPS showing there is a traffic (~400 Mbps).
Also visible using MIB values. But the SVI bits/packets not showing it.
There are 146 SVIs configured there (we have another Cisco 7609 RSP720 
with 393 ones and no such a problem present).
We deleted around 10 interfaces trying to release any resources - 
without result, delete/create the interface - the same.

Is there any limit I do not know. I tried to read about any limits of 
the number of  SVIs - no result.
Are there any assumptions?

Thank you in advance!

Best~
