Symptoms

In BIG-IQ versions prior to 6.0.1, the device reboot timeout is set to 15 minutes, which may be insufficient for a DCD to reboot successfully. As a result, upgrading a BIG-IQ with DCD cluster from a version before 6.0.1 to version 8.0.0 might fail due to the DCD not coming up within the timeout.

Impact

Upgrading a BIG-IQ with DCD cluster from a version before 6.0.1 to version 8.0.0 might fail.
