vCMP Guest Failed: Error Starting VM

Recommendation:

- Reseat the blade that has the Error of VM. 

It resolves after it reseats the blade that has the errors of VM. 

 

F5 Platform: Viprion C4800 | B4300

BIGIP version: BIG-IP 14.1.5.5

  • 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.

      I appreciate your comment. thank you
