We have two M6220 switches stacked in an M1000e chassis filled with 14 M520's and one M910 with the embedded 10G BCM57810 NIC as well as an Intel I350 1Gb mezz card. Keep in mind the onboard 10G card is negotiating at 1Gb since the M6220's are all gigabit.
After about 6 months of service we started receiving messages like this a couple of times a week

These messages have increased in frequency over the past two days to the point that they're triggering every few seconds. This is just a small portion of the output we've received all day.

We performed a reboot last night of both switch units and the alerts appeared to have stopped until this evening when they started generating the alerts again.
We're not seeing any packet loss from any of the blades and the port stats on the switches report no errors or discards.
Our primary concern is if this is something to be concerned about but also we'd like to know how to correct it. Has anyone received this sort of message before and if so, how did you fix it?
