Hi Antonio,
The difference between the two procedures is that
"install all" will perform an in-service software
upgrade, ie, this should be non disruptive to the
data plane while the sups and all the modules will upgrade to the new version.
Versus just changing the boot strings and
rebooting, which is clearly disruptive to the
entire system. In the end, both should result in
all sups & modules running the new release.
Not sure what issues you ran into with ISSU,
would at a minimum suggest you check the release
notes to make sure the starting and target releases are compatible etc.
Hope that helps,
Tim

Thanks, I appreciate your feedback. Since it is a lab environment, may I ask
you to see what happens when you upgrade with the "install all" script and
with the sup in slot 6 ? I had the problem when upgrading from 5.1.3 to
5.2.3a. Now I need to upgrade to 5.2.7 and I want to avoid the issue.

I was just testing that this aft and it works fine in my lab tests, with the
caveat that I have a dual-sup 7010.
Manually configuring the boot strings and then typing reload resulted in
sups and mods all coming up on the new code.
