FW Upgrade on mixed 3750 Stack not working

bryan1981

Level 1

Hi guys,

 

I have a mixed stack of 3750E and 3750G units. Max. feature level = ipbase.

With the Network Assistant I get an error when I try to upgrade the IOS.

I selected this file for the 3750: c3750-ipbaselmk9-tar.122-55.SE9.tar

and this file for the 3750E: c3750e-ipbasek9-tar.122-55.SE9.tar

 

When I try to run the upgrade this error shows up:

Uploading the image.

Uploading the image; this might take a few minutes/seconds...

When I try it with:

archive download-sw tftp://192.168.1.123/c3750e-ipbasek9-tar.122-55.SE9.tar  tftp://192.168.1.123/c3750-ipbaselmk9-tar.122-55.SE9.tar

I get this error:

 

Error: The image in the archive which would be used to upgrade
Error: system number 1 does not support that system type.

The current stack looks like this:

Switch Ports Model              SW Version            SW Image
------ ----- -----              ----------            ----------
*    1 30    WS-C3750E-24TD     12.2(53)SE            C3750E-UNIVERSAL-M
     2 30    WS-C3750E-24TD     12.2(53)SE            C3750E-UNIVERSAL-M
     3 12    WS-C3750G-12S      12.2(53)SE            C3750-IPBASE-M
     4 12    WS-C3750G-12S      12.2(53)SE            C3750-IPBASE-M

 

 

 

BTW: Lets say I have 2x 3750E and 2x 3750G in the stack. Is it possible to upgrade only 1 unit without having a downtime for the others?

 

Many thanks for your support!

Hi,

There is a parameter "/destination-system stack-member-number" for the "archive download-sw" command which enables a stack member to be ugraded.

So provided you decide no to specify any other parameters your command sequence to upgrade your stack via CLI could read as follows:

archive download-sw /destination-system 1 /destination-system 2 tftp://192.168.1.123/c3750e-ipbasek9-tar.122-55.SE9.tar

archive download-sw /destination-system 3 /destination-system 4 tftp://192.168.1.123/c3750-ipbaselmk9-tar.122-55.SE9.tar

Good luck!

Best regards,

Antonin
