File created with backup command can be restored using the restore command,
this restores CP and the OS. If you have different hardware this may fail.
Using the upgrade_export file you can load to any OS or hardware of your
choice, make sure IP and host name are the same to avoid complications. Install
the same FW version, packages and hfa that was on the old system and do the
initial cpconfig, after this run the upgrade_import command importing your
export from the old system. You have a choice to do this from a tftp server on
initial setup but I have found the manual way to be more stable.

Subject: Re: [FW-1] Backup/Restore
1. Are you saying that you can use "upgrade_import" to import a file made
with the "backup" command?
2. Is there any way to see the list of products that the restore command
was expecting to see? That way I could simply install the missing product
and successfully re-run the restore.
3. I guess an advantage of upgrade_export over backup is that
upgrade_export will restore all products? If so what are the steps for
doing a upgrade_import? Do you need to run sysconfig and configure products
first? Do you need to be at the same HFA level first?
TIA,
Jim
