Monitoring the SRX240 Services Gateway Using Chassis Alarm Conditions

When the services gateway detects an alarm condition, the Alarm LED on the front panel turns red or amber as appropriate.

To view a more detailed description of the cause of the alarm, issue the show chassis alarms CLI command.

For more information about the show chassis alarms command, see the JUNOS Software Administration Guide.

Table 1 describes the chassis alarm conditions and corrective actions.

Boot media

The services gateway boots from an alternate boot device.

  • If the internal flash fails at startup, the services gateway automatically boots itself from the alternative boot device (USB storage device).

    Note: If you configured your services gateway to boot from an alternative boot device, ignore this alarm condition.

  • Reformat the internal flash and install a bootable image. (See the JUNOS Software Administration Guide.)
  • If you did not configure the services gateway to boot from an alternative boot device, contact Juniper Networks Technical Assistance Center (JTAC). See Juniper Networks Technical Assistance Center.
