Re: [j-nsp] JunOS 10.4R8.5 on MX5? Am I forced to run 11.4+?

2012-03-25 Thread Timh Bergström
Wow, that sucks major meatballs, thanks for the clarification.

So there might be an option to hack that into the "supported" list of
hardware so the damn code will boot at least. I'll look at it if I
have the time. :-)

Or if we all yell high enough they might release 10.4S to support the
MX5-10-40-T chassis.

 It's quite weird, especially since I can "upgrade" the system to a full  
 MX80
 with licences only, and if I do that I expect that I will be able to run my
 standard release (10.4R8.5) which I run on my other MX80s (which is the 
 full
 MX80 btw).

 So basically, I feel a bit cheated that I had to "wait" for MX5 to be 
 released
 when I could get a MX80-5G.

 I'm going to try to install 11.2R5.4 (recommended release) on it now, I do 
 not
 trust a R1-release. Ever. ;-) I might also try create a technical support 
 ticket or
 raise hell with my SR to try to make the 10.4-series to support MX5/10/40s
 unless someone else has done it already.

Re: [j-nsp] JunOS 10.4R8.5 on MX5? Am I forced to run 11.4+?

2012-03-25 Thread Christopher E. Brown


The _only_ issue is that the chassis ident is MX5-T/40-T etc...

The ID is not in the list so JunOS refuses to finish booting.


We had some part numbers swapped, asked for MX80-40 in late December and
received MX40-T, just had 7 of them swapped out.  (We are currently
running 10.4, no way in hell I am jumping to 11.2 or 11.4 at this time).


The interesting thing about this...  All of the support and sales folks
I talked to have been under the impression for the last 6+ months that
the new MXxx-T units were just a grey chassis version of the MX80-T
(modular MX80 w/ timing).  They all though it was just a part number
change for the re-badged/colored units.

I stopped yelling at them when they had to go to business unit
management to find out that yes, 11.2 and later only and no there would
not be a 10.4S release that added the new chassis IDs for those of us
caught in the middle.
