Hi Luis,

Are you trying to upgrade the IOS for your 7609?

If yes, you do not need to remove the Supervisor at all.

1-You just have to find the IOS version you need

2-Load it into the flash card on the both Sup modules

3-Change your boot variable to reflect the new IOS.

4-Save the config

5-Reboot the router

6-After the reboot, make sure that the Sups are in SSO/redunadant mode by issuing "sh red" command

Make sure to do all of these in an outage window, because there will be down time

HTH
