In my environment there are about 12 clusters ranging from the 210 to 3600. I have only experienced 1 issue with a 240 that lost power (UPS failed) and came back up on the backup partition because (what I'm guessing) a failed fsck. I did a reinstall (since the recovery was an older version) and it booted fine. I also did a handful of controlled power failures without issue. I don't see the SRX being any more susceptible than any other Juniper product and they have enough protections to prevent catastrophic failure form corruption. The only branch model that has RPSU is the 650 so there is the risk of a PSU failure, of course. -r _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
