Note The database cannot be restored from a different version number of ETV Portal

Server or from the same version number after additional features (for example ETV
Scheduler) have been installed. To ensure a successful restore, always perform a
backup after an upgrade or after installing new features. Restore the database only to
an ETV Portal Server instance with the same version number and with the same
features installed.
