so to be sure you now have configuration (LTM, ASM, ...?) on a viprion which you want to move to a vCMP guest on another viprion?

 

then that remains a different platform, even though the hardware at the bottom is the same the vCMP guest will have for example a different interface setup then the vCMP host.

 

so that is your main issue. when you load the UCS from a current BIG-IP to another it might fail due to the config on mainly interface level being different. if you have the time easiest might be to just try, load it, see where it fails and change that in the config file, then try to load again.
