This is how I've done it ...

1. Copy the IOS to primary supervisor card using the command "copy tftp:/IOS.bin sup-bootdisk:"

2. Copy the IOS to the SECONDARY supervisor card using the command "copy tftp:/IOS.bin slavesup-bootdisk:"

3. Remove the old boot variable string using the command "NO boot system flash sup-bootdisk:OLD_IOS.bin"

4. Add the new IOS file to the boot variable string using the command "boot system flash sup-bootdisk:NEW_IOS.bin"

Hope this works for you.

Please don't forget to rate our useful posts. Thanks.
