6509 will not select correct image at boot up

[mchiaravalle_2]

Hi,

Im trying to upgrade a 6509E with Sup2T from 15.1-2.SY7 to 15.1-2.SY9, and I can't get it to pull SY9 on boot?

Here is the boot disk, bootvar, and boot sys

WA-COR-DSW1A#sh bootdisk:
-#- --length-- -----date/time------ path
1 33554432 Jun 1 2016 16:50:02 -07:00 sea_console.dat
2 327680 Jun 1 2016 16:57:26 -07:00 sea_log.dat
3 120283112 Aug 1 2016 15:36:46 -07:00 s2t54-adventerprisek9-mz.SPA.151-2.SY7.bin

6 120873960 Jan 10 2017 09:55:02 -08:00 s2t54-adventerprisek9-mz.SPA.151-2.SY9.bin

WA-COR-DSW1A#sh bootvar
BOOT variable = s2t54-adventerprisek9-mz.SPA.151-2.SY9.bin,1;
CONFIG_FILE variable does not exist
BOOTLDR variable does not exist
Configuration register is 0x2102

!
boot-start-marker
boot system flash s2t54-adventerprisek9-mz.SPA.151-2.SY9.bin
boot-end-marker
!

I really don't want to delete SY7 and "hope" that it boots to SY9.

Also I find it strange that the boot disk shows the SY9 image twice?  if I delete SY9 then it will show SY7 twice?

Any ideas?

Thanks

I think the boot variable string is incorrect.  

It should be:  boot system flash bootdisk:s2t54-adventerprisek9-mz.SPA.151-2.SY9.bin

You sir are correct!  Careless error on my part.

Thank again.
