Hi Rowan,
You have a 515E with a Restricted license. Therefore, to run 7.x code
you only need 64 MB of RAM. 128 is required if you had and
UnRestricted (UR) license.
I see you are running the first release of 7.2, I highly suggest you
upgrade to 7.2(3) (assuming you have a SmartNet contract on the
device). 7.2(3) is much more stable than the initial release of 7.2.
If you want to look into this further, you can paste the output of
";show crashinfo" into this thread, or open a TAC case.
Sincerely,
David.
