This KB is a troubleshooting guide for this scenario.
From Mist portal you can see that the upgrade starts, the % bar fills but the upgrade seems to not happen, no specific error seen.
To understand what could be happening at the SRX there are the following CLI commands:
show system snapshot media internal
show log install
request system software status
For example with these you could identify issue of KB79077 [juniper.net], or also if the upgrade failed due to a storage issue, or if it failed due to a configuration compatibility issue, or any other upgrade exceptions.
