Juniper Networks 8 manual Enter the halt command

Installing Modules

CAUTION: If you do not use the halt command before removing or powering down an SRP, the system’s NVS card can become corrupted.

1.Enter the halt command.

See JUNOSe System Basics Configuration Guide, Chapter 6, Managing Modules for information about the halt command.

WARNING: Turn off the router before you install the redundancy midplane. Working inside the router when it is on can lead to electric shock and serious burns.

2.Turn off the power switches located on the power input module in the rear of the system (Figure 22).

3.Remove the I/O modules from the slots that the redundancy midplane will span.

4.Place the redundancy midplane in the chassis so that it rests against the guides below the chassis midplane (Figure 22).

5.Align the screw holes in the redundancy midplane with the screw holes in the guides so that the midplane covers the slots for the redundancy group.

6.Using a Phillips screwdriver and the screws provided, loosely attach, but do not tighten, the redundancy midplane to the guides.

7.Carefully insert an I/O module in one slot to ensure that the redundancy midplane is aligned correctly; then tighten the screws.

CAUTION: A misaligned redundancy midplane can result in bent pins on the backplane and midplane and poor contact between the I/O modules and the redundancy midplane.
