high cpu load on cat5500

[dong-lee]

Hello,

I've just noticed high cpu load on our Cat5500, and "show proc cpu" shows that console process is eating up the CPU process.

Does anyone know why is it doing it? Did our Cat5500 go bad??

Thank you for you input in advance.

Dong

I dont think it is a bad hardware. Is anybody doing any commands on the console session? If so, try stopping it

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Actually I was on console session, and only run "show proc cpu". We have couple other ones, but none of other Cat5500 behaved this way.

Thanks again

Dong
