Relay daemon code removed for MX Series Virtual Chassis

The code associated with the relay software process (relayd) has been removed for use with MX Series Virtual Chassis configurations. In earlier releases, the relayd functionality was disabled, but the code implementing this functionality was still present in the software. Removing the relayd functionality and related software code reduces the risk of timing issues for MX Series Virtual Chassis configurations and improves overall performance and stability.

With the removal of the relay daemon code for MX Series Virtual Chassis, certain operational commands no longer display information pertaining to the relayd process in the output for an MX Series Virtual Chassis.

Examples of the affected commands include show system core-dumps, show system memory, and show system processes.

In addition, the following relayd error messages have been removed from the software for MX Series Virtual Chassis:

• RELAYD_COMMAND_OPTIONS
• RELAYD_COMMAND_OPTION_ERROR
• RELAYD_SYSCALL_ERROR
