A silent roll package upgrade is a feature that

  • enables manual internal package upgrades for ACI switch hardware SDK, drivers, and related components

  • operates without requiring an upgrade of the entire ACI switch software OS, and

  • is introduced in Cisco APIC release 4.1(2) for specific switch models.

Supported switches and typical usage

Typically, you do not need to perform an SR upgrade because upgrading the ACI switch software OS takes care of internal packages as well.

As of Cisco APIC release 4.1(2), the SR upgrade feature supports the following switches:

  • N9K-C93216TC-FX2

  • N9K-C93360YC-FX2
