Review the following document on CCO, http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat5000/c5krn/sw_rns/78_ 6583.htm#xtocid3 the document indicates the upgrade path for Catalyst 5000 switches, it also has a table that shows which versions of CAT OS is supported by each module. Depending on what you needs are you may have to upgrade all the modules, the RSM runs IOS and will have different criteria to consider when upgrading. To upgrade the module you can use the following command : download . The download first checks to see if the downloaded image is correct for the particular module it then installs the image. As far as which image you would require depends on the type of hardware you are downloading to, for the supervisor cards you need to determine if they are supII, supIII, or supII gigabit.

[7:37382] Hi.. I want to upgrade my catalyst 5505 switch (set based switch). I have never done it for set based cat5505 before and I found that there are a lot of modules in my switch, eg two supervisor module and two 10/100TX Ethernet, one RSM. Do I have upgrade the IOS for every modules? I found that when I type show flash, I got only binary file cat5000-sup3.5-1-1.bin. Can I just download the binary file from web eg cat5000-sup3.5-5-7a.bin and then upgrade by typing copy tftp flash. Will cat5000-sup3.5-5-7a.bin overwrite the old cat5000-sup3.5-1-1.bin or there will be two copy of binary file in the flash. I saw there are a few type of flash code eg Catalyst 5000 Supervisor G Flash Code, Catalyst 5000 Supervisor 3 Flash Code, and Catalyst 5000 Supervisor Flash Code. Can I use any one of them.
