Hi Daniel,
We had a similar situation few days back. Users connected on One of our
switches were complaining of intermittent loss in connectivity.
We had a problem with the GBIC port on one of our Catalyst switch.

I understand you to say that there are two 5505s on each
floor. Half of the
users on each floor connect to each 5505 through a single
vlan. Each 5505
connects to a 6509.
Has anyone changed the config of any of the switches lately?
Any hardware
changes?
Thinking intermittant hardware failure.
Do all the users on a floor who loose connectivity connect
to the same 5505?
Does the aggregate of all users on all floors who loose
connectivity connect
to the 6509 through the same blade via their 5505s? Any
error messages on
the 6509? What's the uptime? What does a show log provide?
What is the bandwidth of the links between the 5505s and the
6509?
If gig, do you have any spare GBICs? I have heard reports of
failing units.
Any construction in the building? How about lots of dust in
the wiring
closets?
Any commonality to the electrical feeds for the switches?
UPS or not?
Can you log error messages to a syslog server?
