Hello,

I'm planning to upgrade my Cisco WS-C2960X-24PS-L switch from its current software version of 15.0(2a)EX5 to the Cisco-recommended version of 15.2(7)E7. Can I perform the upgrade in one step, or is there a specific upgrade path that I need to follow?

Direct upgrade is supported. 

Cold-reboot (pull the power cable) is mandatory.

Follow up question on this: Is the cold-reboot needed for upgrading through GUI?

For any other switches, not necessarily.  For the 2960X, I would recommend a cold reboot.
