This is what I have done to make it work in openstack. BIGIP ltm ve versions tried are 11.4.1 and 11.5.1 edit the /PLATFORM file to add

platform=Z100
family=0xC0000000
host=Z100
systype=0x71

and delete the /temp/platform_info file and restart the vm.

I am not sure what will be the adverse effect of these changes so please do it on your own risk. Do let me know if it works.

Hi All, The tricks works for me on my openstack plateforme but I have now a nex problem due to the licence. The F5 licence server return : F5 registration key is not compatible with the detected platform - This platform, "Z100", cannot be activated with this registration key.. ggrrr!! Do you have further informations about parameters we can put in /PLATFORM file ? or another idea ? Thanks in advance.
