Hi,

 

You can use below command to perform no-platform-check

 

tmsh load sys ucs [ucs file name] no-platform-check

You can also load UCS file with no -license

 

tmsh load sys ucs [ucs file name] no-license

 

My suggestion is:

 

  1. Upgrade your old device to 12.1.2
  2. Then Export UCS file
  3. Import on new device (Configure with same name and management IP as old device)
  4. Once UCS file is loaded, you can change hostname and management IP to according to your requirement.

Hope this helps.
