Upgrading Nvs Cards On Srp Modules; Upgrading A System That Contains One Srp Module - Juniper E Series Hardware Manual

Upgrading NVS Cards on SRP Modules

This section describes how to install higher-capacity NVS cards on SRP modules.
The procedure you use depends on the number of SRP modules in the system.
A new NVS card will contain the software release you ordered.
NOTE: The new NVS card must contain the same software release that you are
running on the system.

Upgrading a System That Contains One SRP Module

If the system contains only one SRP module, you must power down
the system before you upgrade the NVS card. To upgrade the NVS card
on a system that contains one SRP module:
CAUTION: If you do not use the halt command before removing or powering down
an SRP module, the system's NVS card may become corrupted.

WARNING: Do not insert any metal object, such as a screwdriver, or place your
hand into an open slot or the backplane when the E-series router is on. Remove
jewelry (including rings, necklaces, and watches) before working on equipment that
is connected to power lines. These actions prevent electric shock and serious burns.
CAUTION: When handling modules, use an antistatic wrist strap connected to the
E-series router's ESD grounding jack. This action helps to protect the module
from damage by electrostatic discharge.
