I would try to set the vCMP guest to configured, and then toggle back to deployed and see if that resolves the issue. Also, those blades are quite old.... it has passed the Hardware Product End of Software Support
(EoSS) as of 01-Apr-2021. Complete hardware support ends 01-Apr-2025.

In either case, you also want to be getting off BIG-IP 14.x as this will be toast by December 31, 2023.

I've tried multiple times to change the status mode of guests. Blade reseat only resolves the issue.

    You may need to submit a support case with F5 support if you want to figure out root cause.
