Error 997. Overlapped I/O operation is in progress. When applying SQL 2012 SP2 to a FCI passive Node

Question

Hello
I am upgrading my 2 node FCI cluster from SQL 2012 SP1 to SP2. I was able to update one node, then I did failover to the upgraded node but now I cannot update the other node (passive)
I am getting "Error 997. Overlapped I/O operation is in progress"
Any ideas ?
Here is a piece of the log file

Judging by the error message I would say the setup is trying to access a network share that is no longer available to the node due to the failover. How many instances are installed in each node?
Open resource monitor and, in the disk section, check which files are being accessed by I/O threads. See if there are any files in use that the SP2 installer would supposedly try to access.
If possible, save the resource monitor results, failback the instance, and check disk usage in the other node to try to detect any abnormal disk access.
