Removing An Re Module From An Ex9200 Switch - Juniper EX9214 Hardware Manual

Removing an RE Module from an EX9200 Switch

Before you begin to remove an RE module:
• Ensure you understand how to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage. See
Electrostatic Discharge Damage
• Remove all the cables connected to the RE module.
CAUTION: Before you remove an RE module, you must take the host subsystem offline.
If there is only one RE module installed in the switch, taking the host subsystem offline
shuts down the switch.
CAUTION: If the RE module to be removed is functioning as the primary Routing
Engine, switch it to be the backup Routing Engine before removing it.
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
• ESD grounding strap
• Phillips (+) screwdrivers, number 1 and 2
• Antistatic bag or antistatic mat
CAUTION: Do not lift the Routing Engine module (RE module) by holding the ejector
levers. The levers cannot support the weight of the module. Lifting the module by the
levers might bend the levers. Bent levers will prevent the RE module from being
properly seated in the chassis.
To remove an RE module from an EX9200 switch:
1. Take the host subsystem offline. See
2. Place the antistatic bag or antistatic mat on a flat, stable surface.
3. Attach the ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the ESD points on
the chassis.
4. Verify that the RE module LEDs are off.
5. Loosen the screws on each side of the RE module by turning them counterclockwise using the
screwdriver until they are completely unseated.
6. Flip the ejector handles outward to unseat the RE module.
7. Grasp the RE module by the ejector handles and slide it about halfway out of the chassis.
