Within the NCM Firmware Upgrade template there is an option under "Reboot device after upgrade" to set the "Wait time between reboot and checking that the node is 'Up'". In my use case, this is great to use when I need the module to confirm that my devices are running the firmware I installed after a reboot. The problem is that the max wait time that can be set is 10,000 ms which is 10 sec. Many of the devices in my production space can take up to 30 minutes to reboot. If I have this timer set under the reboot option and use the NCM Firmware Upgrade module, the job will error out after some time.
There are multiple ways this can be fixed but increasing the wait timer to something more reasonable than 10 sec appears to be the most efficient and simple.
