Removing a Line Module, SRP Module, or SRP I/O Module
![]() | Note: We recommend that you issue the slot disable command from the CLI before removing a line module or I/O module. |
![]() | Caution: If you do not use the halt command before removing or powering down an SRP, the system's NVS card can become corrupted. |
To remove a line module, SRP module, or SRP I/O module:
- For SRP modules and SRP I/O modules, issue
the appropriate halt command (halt, halt primary-srp,
or halt standby-srp).
See JunosE System Basics Configuration Guide, Chapter 6, Managing Modules for information about the halt commands.
- Ground yourself by using an antistatic wrist strap or other device and connect it to the ESD grounding jack on the chassis.
- Use a screwdriver (using a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver, if necessary) to loosen the thumb screws located at the top and bottom of the module panel.
- If the module has ejector handles, pull them to
the open position, as shown in Figure 21.

- Carefully slide the module out of the chassis.
- Place the module in its antistatic bag, being careful not to touch module components, pins, leads, or solder connections.
- Cover the empty chassis slot with a blank filler
panel, and tighten the filler panel's captive screws using a No. 2
Phillips screwdriver. Turn both screws several times before tightening
them completely.
Caution: Do not overtighten the screws.
If you remove an I/O module and not the corresponding line module, the line module reboots. Its status becomes inactive when you issue the show version command.
If you remove a line module and do not delete the corresponding configuration, the status of the line module is listed as not present when you issue the show version command.
