Error 132 (No buffer space available)

Hello all,

we had an issue today that caused OSPF to reset. Wondering what the actual cause was. It appears that the no buffer space available log entries pertain to IPv6 yet the IPv4 OSPF session is the one that reset.

A few log entries below. Entire issue lasted exactly 2 minutes and 9 seconds. This switch runs both OSPF and OSPF IPv6. But the OSPF IPv4 was the only one that reset. Also, this switch is actually 2 switches stacked. The OSPF link that was reset was between it and a Juniper MX router across a LACP bundle on te1/0/15 and 2/0/15 to the juniper.

Hi,

 

My colleague informed me to request you to update the switches firmware, https://dell.to/3yMmyOU. There are some fixes on stacking and a major security update. Let's try to out rule the root causes.

Hi,

 

Can you let us know what switch model that you're having issue with, and also the firmware version. 

 

Also, the error message, where is this generated from? Is it from the switch CLI?

@DELL-Joey C​ 

Both switches in the stack are model number N4032F. Version below:

unit active      backup      current-active next-active
---- ----------- ----------- -------------- --------------
1    6.5.4.21    6.5.3.3     6.5.4.21       6.5.4.21
2    6.5.4.21    6.5.3.3     6.5.4.21       6.5.4.21

The error messages were pulled from the CLI with the command: show logg

Best,

Lee

Hi,

 

Can you do #dir to check on the flash is out of space. Can you paste the output here, so we can identify which can be removed. The space probably is not available for OSPF routing process.

Also, see memory and mbuf info. Looks like a lot of allocation failures.

@DELL-Joey C​ 

Thank you for the link to the firmware. I have downloaded it and will schedule the upgrade to take place in the next couple days.

I will let you know if this resolves the issue.
