Note
Cisco Nexus 7700 Series Supervisor 3E modules.
Caution
Use -s3- images with Supervisor 3E modules. If you use an -s2- image with a Supervisor 3E module, the
supervisor will not boot up. Some examples of an -s2- image are given below:
• n7700-s2-kickstart.8.0.1.bin
• n7700-s2-kickstart.8.1.1.bin
• n7700-s2-kickstart.8.2.1.bin

a green ACTIVE LED (the standby supervisor module has an amber ACTIVE LED).
Step 9
Remove the USB drive from the Supervisor 2E module (this drive has copies of the Supervisor 2E configuration,
license, and software images) and insert it in the USB port on the active Supervisor 3E module (ACTIVE LED is green).
