Using DNA to upgrade iOS on 9500 in ISSU

osensei — Fri, 11 Feb 2022 17:31:42 GMT

trying to upgrade a 9500 stack in ISSU mode using DNA. I am getting an error on prechecks that the compatibility matrix needs to be uploaded. I uploaded the latest 17.7.1 and get an error in DNA. I want to upgrade from 17.3.3 to 17.3.4.

thanks

You'll want the matrix specific to 17.3.4. It looks like it was removed, but that was a mistake. I've notified the team responsible so they can put it back.

any thoughts as to when this might be done? I have my first upgrade Monday so it would be good to proof this before then.

thanks

I'm told that the minimum version that Cisco DNA supports for SWIM ISSU is 17.6.1, though I don't see any external documentation for that. If you want to use ISSU, you'll have to do the process manually until you reach 17.6.1 or later.
