Hello,
I see boot path is different here(flash:/c2960x-universalk9-mz.152-2.E6/c2960x-universalk9-mz.152-2.E6.bin). I dont know why. For you information .bin file is not there in flash.Can someone tell me.
Now i need to set boot path,primary image as E7(.bin available rwx) & secondary as E6(no .bin but in drws).Can someone suggest proper boot command.

Hello @PrabakaranBalasubramanian16319,
Your E7 is not in a directory then I suggest:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# boot system flash:/c2960x-universalk9-mz.152-2.E7.bin
Switch(config)# boot system flash:/c2960x-universalk9-mz.152-2.E6/c2960x-universalk9-mz.152-2.E6.bin
Switch(config)# end
As mentioned by @Rich R
Switch(config)# boot system flash:/c2960x-universalk9-mz.152-2.E7.bin;flash:/c2960x-universalk9-mz.152-2.E6/c2960x-universalk9-mz.152-2.E6.bin

Sorry M02@rt37 but that is wrong. Boot variables work differently on those IOS switch models. (it's the same for IOS autonomous APs)
Your second command will replace the first command leaving only the E6 boot variable set.
"show boot" will confirm that.
The correct command in this case (to set E7 primary and E6 backup) will be:
Switch(config)# boot system flash:/c2960x-universalk9-mz.152-2.E7.bin;flash:/c2960x-universalk9-mz.152-2.E6/c2960x-universalk9-mz.152-2.E6.bin
Then save the config and use "show boot" to confirm it is set as expected.
