For a Supervisor-1 module, the output might look like this: switch# show module Mod Ports Module-Type Model Status ... ... 5 0 Supervisor/Fabric-1 DS-X9530-SF1-K9 active* 6 0 Supervisor/Fabric-1 DS-X9530-SF1-K9 ha-standby For a Supervisor-2 module, the output might look like this: switch# show module Mod Ports Module-Type Model Status ... ... 7 0 Supervisor/Fabric-2 DS-X9530-SF2-K9 active * 8 0 Supervisor/Fabric-2 DS-X9530-SF2-K9 ha-standby Migrating from Supervisor-1 Modules to Supervisor-2 Modules As of Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 3.0(1), the Cisco MDS 9509 and 9506 Directors support both Supervisor-1 and Supervisor-2 modules. Supervisor-1 and Supervisor-2 modules cannot be installed in the same switch, except during migration. Both the active and standby supervisor modules must be of the same type, either Supervisor-1 or Supervisor-2 modules. For Cisco MDS 9513 Directors, both supervisor modules must be Supervisor-2 modules. Caution Migrating your supervisor modules is a disruptive operation. Note Migrating from Supervisor-2 modules to Supervisor-1 modules is not supported. To migrate from a Supervisor-1 module to a Supervisor-2 module, refer to the step-by-step instructions in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family CLI Configuration Guide. Configuring Generation 2 Switching Modules The Cisco MDS 9500 Multilayer Directors are designed to operate with any combination of Cisco MDS 9000 Generation 1 and Generation 2 modules. However, there are limitations to consider when combining the various modules and supervisors in the Cisco MDS 9500 Series platform chassis. The references listed in this section provide specific information about configurations that combine different modules and supervisors.
