  7. Wait until the key services stop and the module reboots automatically.
    TIP:
    The key services are stopped within a predefined time period. However, stopping the subsystems may sometimes take longer than the predefined time. To make sure that the subsystems are stopped accordingly, the timeout value for stopping the subsystems is extended 1.5 times.
    If you are using a custom timeout defined in the
    AllPagesTimeout
    xml key in the UserDefinedTimeouts.xml file and stopping the subsystems fails, extend the
    AllPagesTimeout
    value. For details on user-defined timeouts, see File types.
