NimbostratusBig-IP VE Lab License Not Working With v10.2
Actually two questions, both dealing with the installation of the Virtual Lab VE license.
1) I have one license running successfully on a VM. I want to move the license to a new VM. Do I need to contact support for this or is there a way to do it without deactivation/reactivation?
2) I bought a second license, to configure HA. I have yet to install/activate it. I currently need to test upgrading from 10.2 to 11.5. I downloaded the 10.2 VM (.OVA) from F5, but I get an error that my license cannot be installed on that version. What gives? Shouldn't my license be valid for any version?
Thanks!

Need to contact support and ask them to mark the license eligible for re-activation. I don't think there is any way around this one.

Bummer. Ask your F5 sales rep for a 3 month eval instead? That might do the trick.
