i think you have to upgrade to version 10 first. You can't jump to v 11 from version 9.
- Sec-Enabled_658CirrostratusThis is correct, you want to upgrade to 10.x first, like 10.2.4 preferably, then upgrade to 11.x.

If you have access to the support site, there's several documents there for upgrading active/standby systems. They go into great detail on the migration path from 9.x to 10.0, and then onto 10.1 and beyond.

I tried with clean installation, and followed the below steps
1) Downloaded 11.2 iso file and burned on DVD 2) Connected an USB DVD ROM to F5 and inserted burned DVD 3) Rebooted the box, and started for installation 4) I got below message and installation strucked in mid Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key
any idea on this.
