Thank you all for your comments. I got the switch to boot into Denali by simply power cycling it. It seems that I was TOO patient. The switch wasn't upgrading in the background; it was hanging.
Why Denali? From various articles which I have read online, Cisco wants to move from the 3.7 train to a single IOS-XR code like Denali. This is the reason I moved to it. We are also interested in possibly using NETCONF and APIC-EM. And, no, we do not need MPLS. In fact I wish the Catalyst team would learn from the Nexus team and use a features model. This way you can enable only what you need. Another issue I found with Denali is that our AIR-2802i no longer are seen in cdp neighbor. I have a TAC ticket open about this and am working with the 3850 and Wireless team. According to Cisco's matrix, Denali 16.3.5b SHOULD work with the 2802i. --Christina ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, January 19, 2018 12:00:05 PM Subject: cisco-nsp Digest, Vol 182, Issue 20 Send cisco-nsp mailing list submissions to [email protected] To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to [email protected] You can reach the person managing the list at [email protected] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of cisco-nsp digest..."
