If you press the RESET button when only one MPU is equipped, the whole system will be reset.
•
To perform an active/standby switchover when two MPUs are equipped, press the RESET
button on the active MPU. The system automatically switches the services to the standby MPU,
without interrupting the ongoing services.
•
If you press the RESET button on the standby MPU when two MPUs are equipped, the standby
MPU will be reset but the system operation will not be affected.
The RUN LED goes off when the MPU is reset, flashes fast (at 8 Hz) when BootWare is running, and
flashes slowly (at 1 Hz) after the system is booted and operates correctly.
Power button
WARNING!
The device might still have power after you press the power button. Do not reboot the RPE-X5E
MPU or remove power cords from the RPE-X5E MPU until the power button/LED goes off.
CAUTION:
•
Forced power-off might cause data loss in virtual machines. Please use it with caution.
•
Avoid accidentally pressing the power button when the device is operating. Doing so will power
off the device system and cause service interruption.
•
If a virtual machine cannot be shut down gracefully, log in to it, terminate the running processes,
and then shut down it.
The power button is used to power on or power off the Comware system and virtual machines
created on the Comware system.
To gracefully shut down the Comware system when the device is operating, press and hold the
power button for 0.5 to 3 seconds. To forcibly shut down the Comware system, press and hold the
power button for more than 3 seconds.
By default, pressing the power button on a powered-off device starts the Comware system but not
the virtual machines. You can use the
autostart
command to configure the virtual machines to be
started together with the Comware system.
Typically, you can use the
reboot
command to reboot the RPE-X5E MPU. However, if the
RPE-X5E MPU is powered off by pressing the power button, you need to press the power button to
turn it on and then execute the
reboot
command.
Switching fabric modules
The SR6600 router supports switching fabric modules only when it is installed with RPE-X3, RPE-X5,
or RPE-X5E MPUs.
