Dear Mohseen,
Nice to see you advice.
i have some question to as you that :
1- Do we configure only master switch and second switch will update automatic ?
2- Do we need to reconfigure stack or what ?
3- when we connect console to switch how can we know the master or member?
i never configure the switch that connect by stack , i use to configure only switch or two switch connect by Ethernet cable.
Best Regards,

Hi Rechard,
1. You need to copy IOS is both switches of stack follow .
2. No need to configure Stack again.
3. Use simple command to check which is master and member - ( show switch detail - you can make with mac address and priority)
For IOS upgrade see following method - actually you can also telnet also achieve same.
Follow above steps add below step to download IOS to master and member switch.
========================
1. Step download IOS with .bin extension
2. Copy IOS to master switch
# copy tftp flash1 >Address or name of remote host? 192.168.1.10 >source filename? c3750-ipbasek9-mz-122-55.SE1.bin >Destination filename? c3750-ipbasek9-mz-122-55.SE1.bin
3. Copy IOS to master switch
# copy tftp flash2: # dir flash2: # verify /md5 flash2:c3750-ipbasek9-mz-122-55.SE1.bin
4. Verify md5 hash for IOS you can get from same place you
# verify /md5 flash1:c3750-ipbasek9-mz-122-55.SE1.bin
5.Modify Switch Boot path-list
# show boot # config t # boot system switch all flash:c3750-ipbasek9-mz-122-55.SE1.bin
Save configuration and reload switches - booth master switch first followed member switches.
Hope this information is helpful and do rate the post.

Dear Richard,
find the below link to upgrade the ios from cisco documents for Stack wise switches,
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/switches/catalyst-3750-series-switches/64898-upgrade-3750-stack.html
make sure you follow all steps,
use one of the following steps to upgrade the Catalyst IOS on Stack wise switches,
==>1 by TFTP,
==>2 by console
==> 3 by using application CISCO NETWORK ASSISTANT,
(personally i will recommend to use this app ) because its graphical just download the required IOS . tar from Cisco website /
==> 4 no need to upload on member switches only need to upload the Master switch
rate it if helpfull
