Input queue - The number of packets in the input queue. Size/max/drops means the current number of frames in the queue/the max number of frames the queue can hold before it must start dropping frames/the actual number of frames dropped because the max queue size was exceeded. The input queue size can be modified by issuing the hold-queue in interface command. Be careful when increasing the size of the queue as this may result in traffic delays because the frames get stuck in the queue for a longer period of time.
Also, make sure you are using 10Gig certified cabling. It should be aqua in color. If you are using standard 1 gig cable (yellow or orange in color) they may not be up to the task.
Thanks to all for your observations and suggestions. They will help me formulate a strategy to address this issue.
