2. Ensure that the required space is available in the bootflash: directory for the image files to be copied
using the dir bootflash: command. Use the delete bootflash: filename command to
remove any unnecessary files.
3. Copy the Supervisor-4 Module NX-OS kickstart and system images to the active Supervisor-1 module
boot flash, using an FTP, TFTP, SCP, SFTP, or a USB flash drive.
Note : The Supervisor-4 images contain the string sf4 to identify them. Do not rename the images,
use the standard image names.
switch#
copy tftp://tftpserver.cisco.com/MDS/m9700-sf4ek9-kickstart-mz.8.4.1.bin
bootflash:m9700-sf4ek9-kickstart-mz.8.4.1.bin
switch# copy tftp://tftpserver.cisco.com/MDS/m9700-sf4ek9-mz.8.4.1.bin
bootflash:m9700-sf4ek9-mz.8.4.1.bin
4. Initiate the migration process on the active Supervisor-1 Module, using the migrate sup
kickstart <supervisor4-kickstart-image> system <supervisor4-system-image>
command in global config mode.
Note : The migrate sup kickstart <supervisor4-kickstart-image> system
<supervisor4-system-image> command is supported on NX-OS Release 8.4(1) or later. Invalid
command message is displayed, if this command is executed on the other versions of the NX-OS
release.
Note : This command verifies if the images are compatible with the current system and the kickstart
image. If the images are not compatible, the following error message is displayed:
ERROR !! Version of kickstart image provided (8.x.x) does not match running
version.
swithc# configure terminal
switch(config)# migrate sup kickstart m9700-sf4ek9-kickstart-mz.8.4.1.bin
system m9700-sf4ek9-mz.8.4.1.bin
Kickstart image file is /bootflash/m9700-sf4ek9-kickstart-mz.8.4.1.bin
System image file is /bootflash/m9700-sf4ek9-kickstart-mz.8.4.1.bin
5. During the migration, enter y when prompted to do so.
Note : After this point, the migration process will be locked and you cannot cancel the migration
process. The migrate sup kickstart <supervisor4-kickstart-image> system
<supervisor4-system-image> command checks if it has to initiate a single supervisor or dual
supervisor migration process by checking if there is a standby Supervisor-1 Module that is installed in
the switch.
Note : In the following system message, Supervisor-1 Module is listed as Supervisor-4 Module.
This will start the Supervisor-1 to Supervisor-4 migration.
Configuration will be locked until migration is complete.
