I found this line in a 7.1.x device pack readme, which is the same as<br>
old windows version device packs. If your running a device pack to add<br>
support for a new phone/etc you need to do a cluster wide reboot, but<br>
if the device pack just upgrades firmware for existing phone/device<br>
types you don't need to reboot. You may need to manually restart the<br>
TFTP service (not sure if the device pack install does that).<br>
<br>
From 7.1.x device pack readme,<br>
<br>
When applying this Device Package to enable new device support, a<br>
cluster-wide reboot is required for those devices to register<br>
successfully. A clusterwide reboot IS NOT required when running to<br>
update existing firmware/support.<br>
