request chassis satellite install

Syntax

Description

Install a version of Junos OS software onto a satellite device in a Junos Fusion.

Any device operating as a satellite device in a Junos Fusion is running satellite software. A device running satellite software cannot operate as a standalone network device until it is running a version of Junos OS software.

You would typically enter this command to install Junos OS onto a satellite device before removing the satellite device from a Junos Fusion. Installing the Junos OS software onto the satellite device before removing it from the Junos Fusion allows you to more easily install the device elsewhere in your network.

If you are using the automatic satellite conversion feature to convert devices into satellite devices in your Junos Fusion, remove the FPC slot ID to the satellite device from the automatic satellite conversion configuration before using this command to install the Junos OS software. You can update the automatic satellite conversion feature using the set chassis satellite-management auto-satellite-conversion satellite slot-id configuration statement.

You must install a PXE version of compatible Junos OS to convert the satellite device running satellite software to a standalone device running Junos OS software on QFX5100 switches acting as satellite devices. The PXE version of Junos OS is the software that includes pxe in the Junos OS package name when it is downloaded from the Software Center—for example, the PXE image for Junos OS Release 14.1X53-D16 is named install-media-pxe-qfx-5-14.1X53-D16.2.tgz.

For Junos Fusion systems running Junos OS Release 17.2R1 and later, you must install a signed PXE version of Junos OS to convert the satellite device running satellite software to a standalone device running Junos OS software. The signed PXE Junos OS package name uses the format install-media-pxe-qfx-5-version-domestic-signed.tgz.

The device uses a factory-default configuration after the Junos OS installation is complete. No Junos OS configuration is modified and the previous Junos OS configuration is not restored after the Junos OS software installation.

Options

`package-name`	Specify the URL to the Junos OS image to install onto the satellite device.
fpc `fpc-slot`	Install the Junos OS software onto the satellite device with the specified FPC slot ID in the Junos Fusion.
device-alias `device-alias`	Install the Junos OS software onto the satellite device with the alias name in the Junos Fusion.
no-confirm	(Optional) Install the Junos OS software onto the satellite device immediately without further confirmation prompting.
