how to disable UTM in SRX
In an SRX device, even if you delete UTM configuration you may still see that control plane memory is
above %80 percent. At least if I take my SRX100 device as an example;
root@srx100-1> show chassis routing-engine Routing Engine status: Temperature 51 degrees C / 123 degrees F Total memory 1024 MB Max 666 MB used ( 65 percent) Control plane memory 560 MB Max 454 MB used ( 81 percent) Data plane memory 464 MB Max 209 MB used ( 45 percent)
What you can do is to disable UTM system process via the command;
#set system processes utmd disable
#commit and-quit
However disabling this process doesn’t release the memory space immediately. You can reboot the box to gain the
space quickly.
>request system reboot
Then, you have your memory back as seen below!
root@srx100-1> show chassis routing-engine Routing Engine status: Temperature 50 degrees C / 122 degrees F Total memory 1024 MB Max 563 MB used ( 55 percent) Control plane memory 560 MB Max 358 MB used ( 64 percent) Data plane memory 464 MB Max 209 MB used ( 45 percent)
