There is a Default Timeout, which takes effect if you don't specify anything in your app, and there is a Maximum Timeout, which no applications are allowed to go above. So, in this case your customer service app's timeout of 24 hours is being restricted to the application server max of 2 hours.

Have you changed anything else about the environment during the upgrade?
