    Hello Apidesh.

     

    Have you confirmed you're not running into a known issue within the v7.8.1.16 release notes?

     

    I've copied our ATG Representative for the V3700 to see if he can provide some information around this upgrade.

    Is this system still under support?  If so, a PMR would be the best route.

    Thanks.
