Hi
according to Checkpoint Upgrade Guide, which you can find on installation
CD:
Working with a Mixed Cluster
When there are cluster members of different versions on the same
synchronization
network, the cluster members with the previous version will turn active
and the cluster
members with the newer version will remain in a special state called
Ready. In this state
the newer version cluster members do not process any traffic destined for
the cluster IP.
During the upgrade this behavior is the expected one. If wish to avoid
such a situation,
for example during downgrade, you should physically (or using ifconfig)
disconnect
the cluster interfaces and the synchronization network of that cluster
member prior to
the downgrade process.
Performing a Zero Down Time Upgrade on a ClusterXL Cluster
Zero Downtime is supported on all modes of ClusterXL including IPSO?s IP
clustering
and VRRP
