Every 100th ICMP is getting dropped

We have a vCMP Host with 4 guests in it, and connected to a nexsus switch with portchannel enabled. on F5 side we have trunked two interfaces to the portchannel. When i Ping any of my guest VIP or self-ip from the access switch or neighboring switch my 100th ICMP is getting dropped or not sending reply.

Any idea what might be causing the issue?

 

Thanks in Advance...

    no Cisco expert but i do remember many articles about their management traffic plane policing (or something like that) being an issue some times.

     

    i would see if you can pin point the issue. does the packet reach the BIG-IP, does it reply?
