Upgrade 6500 Sup2T from 15.0 to 15.1

I am trying to upgrade Sup2T from 15.0 to 15.1 (same feature sets).  I have the new  image in bootflash and have changed the boot system statement to boot from the new image and the config register is 0x2102.  However, everytime it reboots it loads the old image.  Here are the sho bootvar and sho ver:

Router#sho bootvar
BOOT variable = bootflash:s2t54-advipservicesk9-mz.SPA.151-1.SY1.bin,1;
CONFIG_FILE variable =
BOOTLDR variable =
Configuration register is 0x2102

Standby BOOT variable = bootflash:s2t54-advipservicesk9-mz.SPA.151-1.SY1.bin,1;
Standby CONFIG_FILE variable =
Standby BOOTLDR variable =
Standby Configuration register is 0x2102

Can you post the following commands:

1.  dir disk0:

2.  dir sup-bootdisk:

Deleting the 15.0 image from Bootdisk: seems to have addressed the issue.  I did not delete from the slavebootdisk: just in case I needed to roll back but this behavior seems odd to me.

Thanks

Hi Kenneth,

I have seen this and it should resolve by deliting the standby image on the disk.

So are you saying that I can keep the back up copy of the 15.0 image on the primary supervisor and delete from the standby and it will boot as desired?

Thanks

Ken
