Copying the Junos OS to the Solid-State Disk in a T640 RE-C1800 Routing Engine
After installing an SSD for the first time, you must copy the software from the Routing
Engine's CompactFlash card to the SSD.
NOTE: For more information about the commands for this procedure, see
request system partition hard-disk, request system reboot, request system
snapshot, and show system boot-messages.
To copy software to the SSD:
1. On the console or other management device connected to the Routing Engine, enter
CLI operational mode.
2. Partition the SSD. Issue the request system partition hard-disk command.
3. Wait until a message appears on the console confirming that the partition procedure
is complete.
4. Reboot the router's software. Issue the request system reboot command.
5. Back up the currently running and active file system partitions on the router to standby
partitions that are not running. Issue the request system snapshot command.
6. Wait until a message appears on the console confirming that the snapshot procedure
is complete.
7. Reboot the router's software again. Issue the request system reboot command.
8. Verify that the SSD is listed as the secondary boot device. The output lists the devices
mounted. The SSD is located at ad1. Issue the show system boot-messages command.
