Graceful upgrade of a FortiGate 6000 or 7000 FGCP HA cluster is not supported when upgrading from FortiOS 7.0.12 to 7.2.5.Upgrading the firmware of a FortiGate 6000 or 7000 FGCP HA cluster from 7.0.12 to 7.2.5 should be done during a maintenance window, since the firmware upgrade process will disrupt traffic for up to 30 minutes.Before upgrading the firmware, disable uninterruptible-upgrade, then perform a normal firmware upgrade. During the upgrade process the FortiGates in the cluster will not allow traffic until all components (management board and FPCs or FIMs and FPMs) are upgraded and both FortiGates have restarted. This process can take up to 30 minutes.
