which is needed when the device package includes the installation of device model support not previously supported. If the device package does not include additional model support not previously supported; it's usually not much more than a collection of firmware

<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">In
<i>theory</i> (I say theory because I simply have never attempted this), you could complete the device pack install (on all cluster nodes) and then install 10.5(2)SU3a on the cluster nodes and do a single reboot. However, in full disclosure, I have never tried
it that way .... the logic is sound though and I have every reason to think it would work fine.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

may be an option too if you have a <i>really</i> good connection (uploading the uc update and device package files could prove cumbersome otherwise).<u></u><u></u></span></p>

package is from August. My main question is, Can I run the Device Package Installer, not reboot the cluster, perform update and do the switch version? Will I have do do them separately? I’m trying to avoid having to do two cluster reboots since this is a 24/7
Operation and we scheduled a six hour window for the upgrade on a 5 CUCM/ 2 CUC Cluster
