ASR 901 Crash

Pedro Morais · ‎06-23-2015

Hello All,

I have a bunch of ASR901, and one of them got stuck, showing the following message in console:

pura_proc_mem_alloc:323:allocation failed

%% Low on memory; try again later

After reload, it show a message showing that the firmware was about to upgrade, it crashed and booted OK:

[MCU] Running version 01.16.04(15)

[MCU] Running version 04.15

[MCU] New version is 05.04

[MCU] Firmware upgrade in progress...

Right now everything looks OK! Can anyone help me understand what append?

Thanks,

Pedro

pura_proc_mem_alloc:323:allocation failed

Memory allocation error. Could mean anything.

%% Low on memory; try again later

This, on the other hand, means something else. This means you've 110% hit an IOS bug. You may need to reboot the router and upgrade/downgrade the IOS to something more stable. Avoid whatever version is currently loaded on the appliance.
