To replace a module in any switch in the Cisco MDS 9200 Series or 9500 Series, follow these steps: Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Create a backup of your existing configuration file, if required, using the copy running-config startup-config command. Replace the required module as specified in the Cisco MDS 9200 Series Hardware Installation Guide or the Cisco MDS 9500 Series Hardware Installation Guide. Verify that space is available on the standby supervisor module bootflash using the dir bootflash://sup-standby/ command. It is a good practice to remove older versions of Cisco MDS SAN-OS images and kickstart images. For information about displaying file systems and removing files, see the "Using Switch File Systems" section on page 2-26.
