Does upgrading the software on the chassis carry over to the guests?

This is my first software upgrade on the F5 (pair of active-active 7000 series units running 11.4.0 HF5) and I've uploaded the base image (11.4.1) and applied the latest hotfix (HF7) on both chassis....

If that’s the case and my intention is to upgrade from 11.4.0 to 11.4.1, then I have to import/install the base software (11.4.1) and import/apply the latest hotfix (HF7) on each chassis and guest individually. When it's time to boot from the new volume on the chassis and guests, would I boot chassis "a" and then each of its guests, then repeat on chassis "b"? Just checking to see how people normally handle this. Thanks!
