I think that is what I will do. I can get a spare chassis on ebay for
around $500, and use that to test the new engine.
The Cisco docs are misleading. I have IOS 12.2, but the docs for CatOS
say that when you replace the standby Sup2, the active Sup will
automatically sync the bootrom, flash, etc.,. as long as the
replacement is identical. Not sure how accurate that is.
As for that trace error, has anyone seen it before, does it look like
fatal hardware problem, or just a random software crash?
not seen the error before, but it may be worth checking it if you have
cisco CCO access.
more to the point - there is no such thing as "just a software crash"
on an IOS / CatOS system
- think of the disruption if your standby Sup had not taken up the
slack), and think about the 3 sec to 5 minutes when the Sup lights
were out ie the time the switchover might have taken, depending on the
resilience mode you are running....
