Why the EX4300 continue the system halting?
In the LCD, I press to the system halt, then it last this HALTING
status a very long time.
so far, there take 20+ minutes at least.

Also Halt in Junos does not power off the switch, but merely shut down the routing-engine.
If you attach an ethernet device to the switch, you should see that it does not get link any more - this is a good indication that the switch is halted and can be powered off
