Issue

The cluster reported intermittent alerts related to packet loss between cluster LIFs, including:

[vifmgr.cluscheck.droppedlarge:alert]: Partial packet loss when pinging from cluster LIF Node1_clus2 (node 1) to cluster LIF Node1_clus1 (node 2).
[vifmgr.cluscheck.droppedall:alert]: Total packet loss when pinging from cluster LIF Node1_clus2 (node 1) to cluster LIF Node1_clus1 (node 2).
[vifmgr.cluscheck.droppednone:notice]: No packet loss when pinging from cluster LIF Node1_clus2
(node 1) to cluster LIF Node1_clus1 (node 2).

Cluster port statistics showed zero errors, but switch interface diagnostics indicated input errors on ISL port Ethernet1/xx and port-channel1 on sw1, and output errors on interfaces connected to ports on multiple nodes.

Optical diagnostics revealed low receive optical power on Ethernet1/xx on one switch, close to warning threshold.
