Mag CM-060 module is not hot-swappable: entire chassis must restart

[elevated-pulse_]

After performing 4 RMAs for SM-360 modules with installed companion CM-060 modules, I can say with assurance, the following:

1.) The CM-060 power button does not work---no matter how long you depress it.

2.) The CM-060 module does not power itself on when it's host SM-360 module is seated in the chassis.

3.) Due to both of the above, the only way to power on the CM-060 is to power down and back up the entire chassis and hence each installed SM-360 module in turn.

This is not what the very scarce documentation for the CM-060 power down procedure, declares should occur.

If you have a CM-060, you can power down each blade or the CMC itself via junos commands.

Shutdown CMC (and all blades)

request system power-off

Shutdown each blade individually

If you do not have a CMC, you will need to shutdown the whole chassis.

Do you have any idea why the CMC power button is nonfunctional?

CMC power button should work.  This will shut down the CMC and all blades.  This should give the same results as sending the power down command to the CMC via JUNOS.
