Command introduced in JUNOS Release 8.0.

Description

Power off the software.

Options

none — Power off the router software immediately.

all-chassis — (Optional) (TX Matrix and TX Matrix Plus router only) Power off all Routing Engines in the chassis.

all-lcc — (Optional) (TX Matrix and TX Matrix Plus router only) On a TX Matrix router, power off all T640 routers (or line-card chassis) connected to the TX Matrix router. On a TX Matrix Plus router, power off all T1600 routers (or line-card chassis) connected to the TX Matrix Plus router.

lcc number — (Optional) (TX Matrix and TX Matrix Plus router only) On a TX Matrix router, power off a T640 router that is connected to the TX Matrix router. On a TX Matrix Plus router, power off a T1600 router that is connected to the TX Matrix Plus router. Replace number with a value from 0 through 3.

scc — (Optional) (TX Matrix router only) Power off only the master Routing Engine or the backup Routing Engine on the TX Matrix router (or switch-card chassis). If you issue the command from the master Routing Engine, the master SCC is powered off. If you issue the command from the backup Routing Engine, the backup SCC is powered off.

sfc number — (Optional) (TX Matrix Plus router only) Power off only the master Routing Engine or the backup Routing Engine on the TX Matrix Plus router (or switch-fabric chassis). If you issue the command from the master Routing Engine, the master SFC is powered off. If you issue the command from the backup Routing Engine, the backup SFC is powered off. Replace number with zero.

at time — (Optional) Time at which to power off the software, specified in one of the following ways:

• now—Power off the software immediately. This is the default.
• +minutes—Number of minutes from now to power off the software.
• yymmddhhmm—Absolute time at which to power off the software, specified as year, month, day, hour, and minute.
• hh:mm—Absolute time on the current day at which to power off the software.

both-routing-engines — (Optional) Power off both Routing Engines at the same time.

other-routing-engine — (Optional) Power off the other Routing Engine from which the command is issued. For example, if you issue the command from the master Routing Engine, the backup Routing Engine is halted. Similarly, if you issue the command from the backup Routing Engine, the master Routing Engine is halted.

in minutes — (Optional) Number of minutes from now to power off the software. This option is an alias for the at +minutes option.

media (compact-flash | disk | removable-compact-flash | usb) — (Optional) Boot medium for next boot. (The options removable-compact-flash and usb pertain to the J Series routing platform only.)

message "text" — (Optional) Message to display to all system users before powering off the software.

Additional Information

On a routing matrix composed of a TX Matrix router and T640 routers, if you issue the request system power-off command on the TX Matrix master Routing Engine, all the master Routing Engines connected to the routing matrix are powered off. If you issue this command on the backup Routing Engine, all the backup Routing Engines connected to the routing matrix are powered off.

Likewise, on a routing matrix composed of a TX Matrix Plus router and T1600 routers, if you issue the request system power-off command on the TX Matrix Plus master Routing Engine, all the master Routing Engines connected to the routing matrix are powered off. If you issue this command on the backup Routing Engine, all the backup Routing Engines connected to the routing matrix are powered off.

If you issue the request system power-off both-routing-engines command on the TX Matrix or TX Matrix Plus router, all the Routing Engines on the routing matrix are powered off.
