to your Cisco MDS SAN-OS release is present on the active supervisor module. For example, if your
switch is running Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(2), you must have m9000-ek9-ssi-mz.2.1.2.bin in
bootflash: or slot0: on the active supervisor module. Refer to the

As of Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(2), we recommend that you use modflash: on the SSM.
You can check for the presence of the SSI software image using the dir modflash://slot-1/
command.
Download the SSI software image file from Cisco.com to your FTP server.
Verify that you have enough free space available on the active and standby supervisor memory
devices which you plan to use, either bootflash: or slot0:. The download site on Cisco.com shows
the size of the boot image file in bytes.
Note
As of Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(2), you can use modflash: on the SSM but only for
installations using the reload module command. You can check the available space using
the dir modflash://slot-1/ command.
The following example shows how to display the available memory for the bootflash: devices on the
active and standby supervisors.
