Bug ID 655314: When failing to load a UCS, the hostname is still changed, only in 12.1.2 or 13.0.0

Last Modified: Jul 12, 2023

Affected Product(s):
BIG-IP Install/Upgrade(all modules)

Known Affected Versions:
13.0.0, 12.1.2

Fixed In:
12.1.3

Opened: Apr 04, 2017

Severity: 4-Minor

Symptoms

The platform-migrate option to the UCS load command is supposed to reject UCS archives generated on BIG-IP software v10.x. It does this; however, the hostname of the BIG-IP system changes to the one in the UCS.

Impact

The hostname is changed, but no other configuration is modified.

Conditions

You are trying to do a platform-migrate load to 12.1.2 or 13.0.0 of a UCS originating on a system running v10.x.

Workaround

Set the hostname back to its old value.

Fix Information

The hostname is now left unmodified.
