Reload of 9500 core switches to activate new DNA license

Support Cat
Level 1
Level 1

Hi,
we have two Cisco C9500-48Y4C configured as a switch virtual stack as our Core switch in CGH. We need to get Netflow stats off this pair of switches. To do this we know we need to reload the switches so that the DNA advantage license which we have already purchased will come into effect.
Our question is can we reboot one switch at a time to minimize disruption to service or is there another way of applying for the license without reloading the devices, or do both devices have to be reloaded at the same time to pick up the new license/technology package? 
Please see show version below:
Technology Package License Information:

as per the information, you alreadyy applied the License, then reload stanby one, then current active role one.

 

if you have downtime, i would do fresh reload both switches - for clean and clear.
