This article provides guidance on identifying and resolving the `MQSS_CMERROR_BCMF_ICM_FI_RORD_PROTECT_FSET_REG_DETECTED_HRORD1` error observed on a FPC indicating a Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) issue.
FPC detected a memory parity error in the MQSS fabric-side Input Chunk Mover(ICM) Reorder (HRORD1) memory blockThe following error message is observed in the system logs, pointing to a hardware error on the PFE:

Data Collection Steps:
Before performing any recovery steps, collect the following outputs for further analysis:
1. Check system messages:
Router>show log messages
2. Review chassis-level events:
Router>show log chassisd
3. Enter the shell on the specific FPC:
Router>start shell pfe network <fpc-slot-number>
4. From within the PFE shell, collect:
SMPC0(Router vty)#show nvram SMPC0(Router vty)#show syslog messages SMPC0(Router vty)#show cmerror module
* Replace `<fpc-slot-number>` with the actual slot number of the affected FPC.
Resolution:
After collecting the above information, proceed with restarting the affected FPC during a maintenance window (MW) to recover from the fault:
Restart the FPC
Router>request chassis fpc slot <fpc-slot-number> restart
Ensure the restart is done during a scheduled MW to avoid service disruption.
Next Steps:
If the issue recurs after the FPC restart, consider reaching out to your technical support team with the collected outputs for deeper analysis and possible RMA evaluation.
