i normally do restore ucs with no-license and no-platform-check.

root@(ve11c)(cfg-sync In Sync)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) load sys ucs test.ucs ?
Options:
  no-license         This option mostly is for RMA use. It loads full configuration from a UCS file except license file.

  reset-trust        Reset device and trust domain certificates and keys when loading a UCS.

there is a known issue about no-platform-check in 11.6.0 prior to hf4.
