The BIG-IP license is associated with a specific hardware serial number. The UCS archive contains the license file of the system on which you saved the configuration. To successfully install a UCS archive file on a BIG-IP system, you must perform one of the following actions:

Restore the UCS archive to the same system from which you saved it.
Relicense the BIG-IP system after you restore the UCS archive. You must do this when restoring the UCS archive to a system that was replaced due to a Return Material Authorization (RMA) in order to associate the license to the new serial number.
Note: You are allowed to associate the license to a new serial number only in the event of an RMA.

Save the license file prior to restoring the configuration from another system, and then copy the license file back.
Use the following syntax to install the UCS archive using the no-license option:
tmsh load /sys ucs <path/to/UCS> no-license

For example, you use the following code to install the UCS archive named MyUCS:

tmsh load /sys ucs /var/tmp/MyUCS.ucs no-license
