How to software upgrade 4 x450 in a stacked config

James_Red1 — Tue, 22 Jul 2014 07:23:00 GMT

We have 4 x450 switches stacked here. I would just want to ask for the procedure on how to do xos upgrade for switches in stacked configuration? Do I need to break the stack, upgrade each node then rebuild the stack? Or can I upgrade all those 4 switches in 1 go in their stacked config?

thank you,
James

You can download the software image from Master node and it will automatically install the software on all 4 slots when in stacking.
No need to break stacking.

@ Parthiban is absolutely correct. However, first you need to confirm if all the slots in stack are booted on same partition using the command "show switch".
