Cisco FlexStack firmware update

arrkerr

Cisco's documentation seems a bit vague here.  I'm assuming that the firmware upgrade process for a number of 2960s switches in a flexstack would require a stack reload to complete the update, and that some connectivity loss would occur (vs. RSU on a 3750-x StackWise Plus stack).  Is this assumption correct?

Hi Ar,

Yes it requires reboot.

More info:

Upgrading the Cisco IOS Software Release on a Stack

#

FlexStack  has the capability to upgrade all members with a single command. A  single command eases the operational burden on the network  administrator. The command to initiate an upgrade takes place on the  master. The master makes sure that each member is properly upgraded.

#The default behavior is to upgrade all members.
