Before you power off an ACX6360:
Ensure that you have taken the necessary precautions to
prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage. See Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage.
Ensure that you do not need to route traffic through the
ACX6360.
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available
to power off the ACX6360:
- Connect to the router by using one of the following methods:
- Shut down Junos OS from the external management device
by issuing the
request vmhost halt
operational mode CLI
command. This command shuts down Junos OS gracefully and preserves
system state information. A message appears on the console, confirming
that the operating system has halted.user@host> request vmhost halt
Halt the system ? [yes,no] (no) yes
You see the following output (or something similar) after entering
the command:
Initiating vmhost halt... ok
Initiating Junos shutdown... shutdown: [pid 14318]
Shutdown NOW!
ok
Junos shutdown is in progress...
*** FINAL System shutdown message ***

...
...
Operating system halted.
Please press any key to reboot.
CAUTION:
The final output of any version of the request system
halt command is the “The operating system has halted.”
Wait at least 60 seconds after first seeing this message before following
the instructions in Step 4 and Step 5 to power off the
ACX6360.
- Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap
to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the ESD points
on the chassis.
- Disconnect power to the ACX6360:
AC power supply—If the AC power source outlet has
a power switch, set it to the OFF (O) position.
If the AC power source outlet does not have a power switch, gently
pull out the plug end of the power cord connected to the power source
outlet.
DC power supply—Switch the circuit breaker on the
panel board that services the DC circuit to the OFF position.
- Remove the power source cable from the power supply faceplate:
AC power supply—Remove the power cord from the power
supply faceplate by detaching the power cord retainer and gently pulling
out the socket end of the power cord connected to the power supply
faceplate.
DC power supply—Remove the screws securing the ring
lugs attached to the power source cables to the power supply using
the screwdriver and remove the power source cables from the power
supply. Replace the screws on the terminals and tighten them.
Uncable the device before removing it from the rack or
cabinet.
