Gotchas on N5K switches

I hate this - but it’s gotta be done.

I’m performing an upgrade on our N5K dcs soon. My test environment contains 2x N5K + 1x2k and whatever server farms hanging off those.

My plan in test is to ensure all N5Ks (fex I’m leaving for now) are joined via vPC, all port channels and their settings are identical on both switches, gracefully shutdown server farms- perform upgrade/downgrade a few times, bring up server farms and hopefully that’ll be fine.

Am I missing anything or is there anything I should look out for?
