minimum requirements for VSS on cisco 6509

Hello I have a cisco 6509:

NAME: "WS-C6509-NEB-A", DESCR: "Cisco Systems Catalyst 6500 9-slot Chassis System"

Cisco IOS Software, s72033_rp Software (s72033_rp-IPSERVICESK9_WAN-M), Version 12.2(33)SXJ3, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
Technical Support: http://www.cisco.com/techsupport
Copyright (c) 1986-2012 by Cisco Systems, Inc.
Compiled Mon 16-Apr-12 16:12 by prod_rel_team

ROM: System Bootstrap, Version 12.2(17r)SX5, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)

I have 9 slot full with different card types and these supervisor.

NAME: "5", DESCR: "WS-SUP720-3B 2 ports Supervisor Engine 720 Rev. 5.6"
PID: WS-SUP720-3B , VID: V05, SN: SAL1221RC9R

NAME: "msfc sub-module of 5", DESCR: "WS-SUP720 MSFC3 Daughterboard Rev. 3.1"
PID: WS-SUP720 , VID: , SN: SAL1221R8UX

I have a second chassis which is identical to the first one.

I would like to configure the two chassis to be managed as one virtual entity using VSS.

May I do it independently from the type of cards I have installed in the slots ?

May it be possible to  support a VSS configuration upgrading just the SUP engines  ?

is VS-S720-10G-3C= compatible with VSS ?

what else I would need to change in the hardware for being VSS compliant ?

thank you

Rick

Yes.  If the product ID starts with "VS" then the supervisor card supports VSS.
