6 9 Supervisor Engine 32 8GE (standby cold) WS-SUP32-GE-3B SALXXXX
Standby Sup(Via ftp or disk or bootflash) we see the following error:-

Solution for this:
==============
++ We need to copy the image file with the smaller length destination name (newimage.bin) and then renamed it back to the original file.
Example:-
6500#copy sup-bootdisk: slavesup-bootdisk:
Source filename [s3223-adventerprisek9_wan-mz.122-33.SXI10.bin]?
Destination filename [s3223-adventerprisek9_wan-mz.122-33.SXI10.bin]? newimage.bin >>>>>>>>. Change the destination filename to be smaller name.

Switch#rename slavesup-bootdisk:newimage.bin slavesup-bootdisk:s3223-adventerprisek9_wan-mz.122-33.SXI10.bin
- Save the config (wr)
- Reloaded the standby supervisor <hw-module reset <module number>)
After which it will come in hot standby state.
