It looks like BIG-IP 14.0.0 and later versions do not support B2100 platform?
Also, if you're only upgrading the Guest instance (and not Host as well) there might be incompatibilities between hypervisor and Guest versions, v12/v17 is quite a large difference!They may also need to re-activate license. Otherwise config will not load on newer code versions since that expiration date.
