On n5k — when designed appropriately — I’ve not had an issue with ISSU.  The 
process is actually pretty stable.  This means adhering to design guides for 
things like bridge-assurance, STP, etc.

N7K was a rockier experience (when I was in the field).  5.0 -> 5.1 -> 5.2 
transitions were rough — due to scheduler rebuilds with each release.  Many 
things broke.
I can’t think of any of my customers today running vPC on n7k — as most of them 
have moved to either ACI or VXLAN-EVPN — so I don’t have any anecdotes from the 
field.
