Upgragding Cisco 6500 IOS
I have a Cisco 6509 switch with redundant 720/MSFC3 supervisors that needs the IOS upgraded to a newer version. I have new ios bin file: s72033-adventerprisek9_wan -mz.122-33 .SXH5.bin
Would it be prudent to remove one of the supervisors and then upgrade the IOS and load the config on one supervisor?
My thinking is that way if the new IOS is not compatible with the supervisor or firmware, etc.. then I could just shut the switch down, swap supervisors, boot the switch and then I am back to where I was before.
The main question that I have is how the redundant supervisor works with online insertion?
Does the IOS and config both get sychronized automatically to a inserted supervisor or is that a manaul process? How do I verify that the sups have synced?
Do the files get overwritten or added to the inserted supervisor?
Is there a reason to upgrade both supervisors at the same time?

Had to copy IOS to slavedisk0: also.

If there is room on the flash then that would make sense.
Then I would not have to reload the configuration?
Do you have a link to a step by step procedure for doing the upgrade that way?
