Hello Scott,
A few years and releases later, I am wondering if documentation is accurate and keyword ´reloadfast´ during a software upgrade is now supported in Cat 9300. Just saying this because having all pre-requisites (advantage license, stack switch, spanning-tree checks ok) the software upgrade with 'reloadfast' fails because an incompatibility, which is ISSU (however I have not invoked keyword 'issu' because this is not supported in Cat 9300). Is it possible that 'reloadfast' is dependent on ISSU to work?
Command executed (in 17.06.03 version):
install add file flash:cat9k_iosxe.17.06.04.SPA.bin activate reloadfast commit
