Updating SG500 Stackable Managed switches - different models and versions stacked

ScottBris

Level 1

Hi,

I've just moved into an environment with the below details. It looks like it's never been updated which I need to do asap, to begin addressing terrible network performance.

Unit          Type
---- ----------------------
 1         SG500X-48P
 2         SG500X-48P
 3         SG500-52P
 4         SG500-52P
 5         SG500-52P
 6         SG500-52P

 

1-2:     SG500X-48P 48-Port Gigabit with 4-Port 10-Gigabit PoE Stackable Managed Switch
3-6:     SG500-52P - 52-Port Gigabit PoE Stackable Managed Switch

 

       Unit             SW version         Boot version         HW version
------------------- ------------------- ------------------- -------------------
         1               1.3.7.18            1.3.7.01               V02
         2               1.3.7.18            1.3.7.01               V02
         3               1.3.7.18            1.3.7.01               V01
         4               1.3.7.18            1.3.7.01               V01
         5               1.3.7.18            1.3.7.01               V01
         6               1.3.7.18            1.3.7.01               V01


      Stack Unit Model    Stack Connection 1   Stack Connection 2
      Name                   Port   Speed Neighbor  Port Speed Neighbor
 
    1     SG500X-48P     S1     1G     Unit2      S2     1G     Unit3     
    2     SG500X-48P     S1     1G     Unit1      S2     1G     Unit5     
    3     SG500-52P       S3     1G     Unit1      S4     1G     Unit4     
    4     SG500-52P       S3     1G     Unit3      S4     N/A     N/A     
    5     SG500-52P       S3     1G     Unit2      S4     1G     Unit6     
    6     SG500-52P       S3     1G     Unit5      S4     N/A     N/A

Operational Status
Stack Mode:         Advanced Hybrid Stacking
Stack Topology:     Chain
System Mode:         L3
Stack Master:         Unit 2
Master Election Status: Automatic Master Election

Administrative Status
System Mode     
    L3 Mode
Queues Mode     
    4 Queues

 

 

Questions to update:

1 - Can I rely on the release notes to confirm how many, and which hops to do?

2 - The GUI doesn't seem to offer an option to update individual switches and I can't find a way with the CLI to update individual switches. Given the different hardware and versions in the stack, how do I update everything?

3 - Where do I find official documentation on the process? The admin guide doesn't seem to talk about updates when you have different gear hooked up together.

 

Thanks,

Scott
