Hi everybody,

    Importing a v10 ucs file to v11 should work. If you are getting errors could you post what you're getting so we can do more to help?

     

     

    Thanks

    as nathan mentioned, please try to import v10 ucs to v11 using command line (tmsh load sys ucs ...) and post any error here if had.

    sorry i forgot to tell you to use no-license option. can you correct license on unit B (i think now unit B license is already overwritten by unit A license) and import v10 ucs again?

     

     

    tmsh load sys ucs ... no-license

     

     

    if there is no useful error message when importing, please try this command.

     

     

    /usr/libexec/bigpipe daol

    When I run the commnad: /usr/libexec/bigpipe daol

     

     

    This is the result:

     

     

    BIGpipe unknown operation error:

     

    01070973:3: The specified route domain (10) does not exist for address (192.168.1.10).

     

     

    Have I add this route domain?

     

     

    Thanks!

    Have I add this route domain?i do not know but it could be in configuration file. the configuration file should be in /config/bigpipe. so, can you correct it and then run "/usr/libexec/bigpipe daol" again?
