compact flash failure?
hello all,

i am currently evaluating a m20 and am wondering what sort of a problem
i have (i know, i have a lot ;) ). the device has not yet undergone
recertification (and i frankly don't want to pay for that if i have prior
hardware issues).

my first issue: the router is showing a fault on the power supply. i do
only have one p/s connected right now, so i do not know if that is the
the cause.

second issue: the initial boot was fine, i rebooted the router (after
performing a password-recovery) and the compact flash seems to have
disappeared. the router will only boot to the pcmcia or hdd.

i am a juniper newbie, so i am not sure what info will be useful, so if
i missed something, please tell me.

thanks

joshua

compact flash failure? [ In reply to ]
If the second supply is installed, but does not have AC/DC power
coming into it, you will see an alarm. If you pull the supply out the
alarm will clear (it might turn yellow until you reboot with the
supply removed).

When you boot from the PCMCIA card it should reformat the flash and
lay down a new file system/JUNOS. Are you seeing any errors during
the boot from PCMCIA process? Note that one you have booted from
PCMCIA, the router will normally reboot and use the flash, or failing
that, from alternative media (the HD). From the below it does seem
that you have bad flash as the HD is being used. You may want to open
a support case, as I believe there is a flash format procedure that
*might* resurrect the RE; else you are probably looking at an RMA.

You might try a request system snapshot; this will, in theory, write
the binary environment from the boot device (the HD in your case)
back to the alternative media (which in your case is now the flash
memory. Also, have you tried a reboot specifying the boot device as
the flash?

lab@r5# run request system reboot media ?
Possible completions:
compact-flash Standard boot off flash device
disk Boot off hard disk


HTHs.
