Upgrading IBM Cloud Pak for AIOps backup and restore artifacts

Use this procedure if you want to run backup or restore on an upgraded IBM Cloud Pak® for AIOps deployment.

If you run a backup or restore on an IBM Cloud Pak for AIOps deployment, the backup and restore scripts must always be the same version as your deployment. For example, if you run backup on a IBM Cloud Pak for AIOps v4.8.0 deployment, you must use a v4.8.0 backup script.
