Service Manual
• Use the eg-default CAM prole in a chassis that has only EG Series line cards. If this prole is used in a chassis with non-EG line
cards, the non-EG line cards enter a problem state.
• Before moving a card to a new chassis, change the CAM prole on a card to match the new system prole.
• After installing a secondary RPM into a chassis, copy the running-conguration to the startup-conguration.
• Change to the default prole if downgrading to a Dell Networking OS version earlier than 6.3.1.1.
• Use the CONFIGURATION mode commands so that the prole is change throughout the system.
• Use the EXEC Privilege mode commands to match the prole of a component to the prole of the target system.
QoS CAM Region Limitation
To store QoS service policies, the default CAM prole allocates a partition within the IPv4Flow region.
If the QoS CAM space is exceeded, a message similar to the following displays.
%EX2YD:12 %DIFFSERV-2-DSA_QOS_CAM_INSTALL_FAILED: Not enough space in L3
Cam(PolicyQos) for class 2 (Gi 12/20) entries on portpipe 1 for linecard 12
%EX2YD:12 %DIFFSERV-2-
DSA_QOS_CAM_INSTALL_FAILED: Not enough space in L3 Cam(PolicyQos) for class 5 (Gi 12/
22) entries on portpipe 1 for linecard 12
If you exceed the QoS CAM space, follow these steps.
1. Verify that you have congured a CAM prole that allocates 24 K entries to the IPv4 system ow region.
2. Allocate more entries in the IPv4Flow region to QoS.
Dell Networking OS supports the ability to view the actual CAM usage before applying a service-policy. The test cam-usage
service-policy command provides this test framework. For more information, refer to Pre-Calculating Available QoS CAM
Space.
