Powering Off the PTX1000

Before you power off a PTX1000:
Ensure that you have taken the necessary precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage.
See "Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage" on page
Ensure that you do not need to route traffic through the PTX1000.
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available to power off the PTX1000:
An ESD grounding strap
An external management device such as a PC
An RJ-45 to DB-9 rollover cable to connect the external management device to the console port
To power off a PTX1000:
1. Connect to the router by using one of the following methods:
Connect a management device to the console (CON) port on a PTX1000 by following the instructions
in "Connecting the PTX1000 to a Management Console" on page
Connect a management device to one of the two management (MGMT) ports by following the
instructions in "Connecting the PTX1000 to a Management Ethernet Device" on page
2. 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
