Debug Messages
Recv Buffers Not Empty
<DBUG:PORT> Recv buffers not empty on slot 3 port 18 mask 13d
Software Version
ExtremeWare 4.x
Hardware Version
BlackDiamond and Summit
Explanation
This message indicates that the switch was not able to remove frames from the MAC hardware. You
can see this message when a port comes up or if the link transitions. The symptom might accompany
connectivity loss on the ports.
Action
Check the log to see if there are link transitions.
If the error accompanies either network connectivity loss on the port, or a diagnostics failure on the
system, RMA the switch and module as necessary.
If the problem is not accompanied by connectivity loss, and system diagnostics are clean, then it is a
cosmetic message and will not cause network problems.
If you are using ExtremeWare 4.1.19b2 and earlier, upgrade to the latest software.
