3750X Rolling Stack Upgrade/Update

Jeff Schaefer
Level 1
Level 1

     This feature doesn't work as advertised on the Release Notes and other documentation.  After 12 hrs of lab work and a tlwo day support call to TAC, they finally came back to me that:

  IOS Upgrade works well if you use the command force-reload, without force-reload, it won't work.  --"of course with this command the complete stack will go down and the purpose of RSU will not serve"   

Then they pointed me to a bug that I could not find in the bug tracker unless I searched by the bug ID number ??   CSCua78897

Unfortunately this bug has a closed status and is not slated to be fixed ? 

My purpose of this post:

I hope someone doesn't waste two days of their lives trying to figure out what is wrong when all it would take is a small update in either the release notes or   config guide or ANYWHERE just not hide the bug from the masses. 

Thanx for the vent....
