Hello All,

One of the vcmp guest’s status is “ModuleNotLicensed::LICENSE INOPERATIVE”

Other guests are working fine. How to resolve the guest license issue?

If the guest’s license is propagated by host, why only 1 guest has license issue?

The license is on the host but maybe you are trying to use a module on the vCMP quest that is not licensed on the host. Example:

> **[myF5](https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K09107403)**

Also if this is not the case try redeploying the quest from the host:

Have you recently tried to upgrade the guest? If so you might want to roll back and to a controlled license re-activation on your hosts. Please mind that the reactivation process can be disruptive to your traffic flow.
