An update to one of the underlying packages has returned an incorrect status code and the scanner failed to reboot.
When updating a scanner from a release prior to version 9.5.2, which was also initially installed with version 4.1.x, you will need to manually reboot the scanner after the upgrade is complete. Following the reboot, the update will complete and the scanner will again be accessible from the Control Center GUI.
