Re: [j-nsp] Power ON?

[Aaron Gould]

I can't speak for the others, but there isn't confusion on my part since I'm 
new to a lot of this vm stuff and simply chimming-in that I see that also in my 
mx960.:)

Is the confusion how it could possibly make sense to power on your
vmhost, when you're running on it?

I believe the use-case is mostly to power-on/power-off vmhost on non-current RE.

It makes sense on dual-RE platforms:

mx960> request vmhost power-on other-routing-engine

We noticed the same thing, and had a good laugh last week.

Another fun thing is that if you just do a "vmhost halt", you can restart it by 
pushing a button in the serial console.  But if you do a power-off, you need to 
pull the power cord (no "on/off" switch in the PSUs or chassis) .
