F5 VCMP guest shutdown and decommissioning

Question

Hi,&nbsp;I have a change to shut down and decommission some of the F5 vCMP guests under the vCMP host. Please share the complete change plan steps and any considerations to take into account before the activity.Also as part of taking usc backup, i need to take the key separately right. If possible please share the CLI commands to take the ucs &amp; key backup. Also is root account required to export the ucs &amp; key.
