So thanks to all for the help. It was an SFP. Here is CPU with bad SFP: plf-access#
plf-access#sh proc cpu sorted CPU utilization for five seconds: 11%/0%; one minute: 18%; five minutes: 21% PID Runtime(ms) Invoked uSecs 5Sec 1Min 5Min TTY Process 41 237737055 1095169 217078 5.11% 11.74% 14.87% 0 SFF8472 Here is CPU with SFP taken out: plf-access#sh proc cpu sorted CPU utilization for five seconds: 5%/0%; one minute: 17%; five minutes: 21% PID Runtime(ms) Invoked uSecs 5Sec 1Min 5Min TTY Process 106 322 437 736 0.79% 0.07% 0.03% 0 Exec Confirmed it was the SFP by pulling it in and out a couple times. Processor flapped right along. Thanks again to all, Joe "Well, I have no direct experience with the 3560, but SFF-8472 is a spec that includes diagnosting monitoring of SFPs..."
