Can not load UCS file no-license no-platform-check

what is purpose of load UCS file with no-license and no-platform-check ?

i always used when restoring customer ucs to my lab unit for testing. so, i do not need to use the same platform and certainly no issue about license.

 

If my license enable only LTM but my customer have config WA + LTM , Is it a problem to load config?

 

 

If my license enable only LTM but my customer have config WA + LTM , Is it a problem to load config? i am not sure but i think configuration can be loaded but it won't work without license (and provisioning).

thank you. i'll test some.

Nitass: Is there a similar facility (noplatform option), for 10.x? I'm having problems installing a UCS from a 3400 (10.2.3) onto 10.2.3 VE. A "b load" returns no errors, however, only the base config objects (VLANS, IPs), get loaded and a reboot yields an "INOPERATIVE" VE device.

 

 

Thanks in advance!

Is there a similar facility (noplatform option), for 10.x?i am not sure but i remember 10.x does not check platform. anyway, there is "rma" option to exclude license file.

root@ve10(Active)(tmos) load sys ucs test.ucs ?
Options:
  rma         Load full configuration from a UCS file except license file. This
              command mostly is for RMA use.

A "b load" returns no errors, however, only the base config objects (VLANS, IPs), get loaded and a reboot yields an "INOPERATIVE" VE device.have you checked /config/bigip.conf? is it restored correctly?

Thank you, nitass! I believe the problem I had was the result of trying to install a "support ucs" (ie one without ssl keys), onto the box. Thanks for the tip about excluding the license under 10.x!
