APIC Upgrade

If you are confused about the inconsistencies and totally un-intuitive user interface of the Cisco APIC and Switch upgrade process, you may get some tips as I stumble through the process of upgrading a lab pod from APIC v5.2(3g) to 6.0(1g)

For anyone wondering, the reason why you couldn't create the upgrade group without selecting 'Begin Download' is because you choose a different software version for the switches than the existing one. If you had chosen the 15.2x, you could get through the wizard without having to download anything.

Thanks for your comment, but I'm not going to waste time validating if your comment is correct. The whole process is just so un-intuitive it still frustrates the hell out of me even after having done it many times by now.
