adding bigip VM to BIgiq is throwing this exception
Hi, I am trying to discover the bigip LTE VM from BIGIQ VM GUI. I am getting the following exception and I am not sure why.
[I][2585][15 Jun 2015 23:52:22 UTC][8100/shared/device-discovery-tasks DeviceDiscoveryTaskCollectionWorker][processRemoteKeyPairFailure] Failed to post device-group cm-autodeploy-group-manager-autodeployment keys to device 192.168.6.157: Duplicate item. Key already exists: groupName : cm-autodeploy-group-manager-autodeployment [I][2586][15 Jun 2015 23:52:24 UTC][8100/shared/device-discovery-tasks DeviceDiscoveryTaskCollectionWorker][completed] On device 192.168.6.157, patched device-group cm-autodeploy-group-manager-autodeployment key pair. That device can no longer communicate with devices using the old key.
Can anyone please do let me know what's happening here? We are seeing this issues after we re-activated the expired license for BIGIQ.

A common cause for this issue is duplicate /config/f5-rest-device-id files on multiple BIG-IP devices. This can happen if you have created your devices by cloning the VE or restoring a UCS file from another device. This solution covers this issue: https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/15000/900/sol15938.html
You should now have a new f5-rest-device-id file. Retry the discovery.
