Hi Everyone,
I need to know whether anyone here tried to restore UCS file restoration across platforms? I will need to restore from 4000 to 4200. This is possible? I think both units are on v11....

Thank you so much Nitass. However once I did pass that error I did run this issue below: 01071769:3: Decryption of the field (admin_pw) for object (/Common/xxx.xxx) failed. Unexpected Error: Loading configuration process failed. Which can be fixed by - https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/9000/400/sol9420.html Thanks again - StephanMantheyJun 03, 2015

Hi, what kind of object is /Common/orionhealth.saas? If there is a passphrase associated it might be protected by the so called master key (synchronized between units in sync-failover devicegroup; not stored in .ucs file). Two ways to solve the problem from my perspective: 1. remove the passphrase from configuration file and re-enter afterwards from WebUI 2. import the previously used master key before loading the new configuration. For exporting and restoring the master key you can do the following. On the 4000 (old; source) you run the this command to export: f5mku -K On the 4200 (new; target) you run this command to import: f5mku –r Now you should be ready to load the configuration to migrate. You mentioned that you used grep to parse the configuration files. Please be aware, that in case of using administrative partitions you need to parse additional files which can be found in the /config/partitions// subdirectories. Thanks, Stephan
