The problem somehow was resolved however has arisen again. I have another HA pair on 11.3. Build 2806 and want to install Hotfix10 without disruptions. With live services on F5-1 I installed Hotfix10 on F5-2. Upon reboot I got another sync failed and this time the only solution was to back out and resync which this time worked. Is it the case then that I cannot sync if the F5's are running different Hotfixes? How can I do a non-disruptive upgrade? I had hoped that the following would work a. Fail over services to F5-1 b. Install upgrade on F5-2 c. Failover test services to F5-2 d. When happy fail over production services to F5-2 e. Upgrade F5-1 to Hotfix 10 f. Fail over traffic groups as appropriate
