Step 5 During the migration, enter “ y ” when prompted to do so.
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
will then check if it has to initiate a single supervisor or dual supervisor migration process by checking if
there a standby Supervisor-1 Module is installed in the switch.
Note
In the following system message, Supervisor-1 Module (DS-X97-SF1-K9) is listed as Supervisor Module-3.
This will start the Supervisor-3 to Supervisor-4 migration. Configuration will be locked

Please do not remove any linecards or fabric cards until migration is complete
Step 6 Insert the new Supervisor-4 Module, as explained in Installing a Supervisor Module, on page 113 and Removing a
Supervisor Module, on page 115. When the Supervisor-4 Module is detected in the standby supervisor slot, a boot from
a network (TFTP) server is initiated with the image that is provided by using the migrate sup kickstart <
supervisor4-kickstart-image > system < supervisor4-system-image > command.
You have to insert the Supervisor-4 Module into the switch within a period of 30 minutes after initiating
the migrate sup kickstart <supervisor4-kickstart-imag e>system <supervisor4-system-image> command.
In case you have not inserted the Supervisor-4 Module within the 30 minutes after executing the command,
you have to execute the command again and re-initiate the migration process.

<Tue Jun 25 15:06:57 2019> Please insert Supervisor-4 (DS-X97-SF4-K9) in slot
number: 6 within 30 minutes
After the Supervisor-4 Module is inserted in the slot, a timeout of 45 minutes is triggered for the Supervisor-4
Module to power up and come online. If the Supervisor-4 Module fails to power up and come online at
the first attempt, a retry is initiated every 15 minutes. In case the Supervisor-4 Module fails to come online
after three retries or 45 minutes, you have to remove the Supervisor-4 Module and restart the migration
process by using the migrate sup kickstart <supervisor4-kickstart-image> system
<supervisor4-system-image> command.
