Monitoring Hotfixes - Juniper SYSTEM BASICS - CONFIGURATION GUIDE V 11.1.X Configuration Manual

Monitoring Hotfixes

Several commands provide information about hotfixes that have been loaded on the
router. You can use the show hotfix command to discover the armed and activation
status of all hotfixes or a specific hotfix. The output lists the hotfix by name and a
unique ID number, which is useful if the filename has been changed. This command
also displays dependencies for each hotfix; that is, other hotfixes that must be
activated before that hotfix can be activated. For more usage details and sample
output, see "show hotfix" on page 398.
The dir command displays all hotfixes present on the local flash card. The in use
field indicates that the hotfix is either currently activated or armed to be activated
as a startup hotfix for the currently armed release.

reboot.hty
system.log
haIpSetup.mac

hf63035.hfx
hf63030.hfx
...
You can use the show version command to display a summary of each of the hotfixes
currently activated on the system, including the hotfix name and hotfix ID.

% Activation failed
Startup hotfixes cannot be manually activated. If you attempt to manually activate
a startup hotfix, the operation fails and generates the following error message:
% Manual activation not allowed
Example
host1#hotfix activate hf63037.hfx
Use the no version to manually deactivate the specified hotfix. Deactivation
restores the system to the state that existed before the hotfix was activated. You
can specify the all keyword to deactivate all active hotfixes.
When you deactivate hotfixes that have dependencies, you must deactivate them
in the reverse sequence from which they were armed. However, if you have
issued the all keyword, the disarming automatically takes place in the correct
order.
See hotfix activate.
