Note The database cannot be restored from a different version number of ETV Portal
Server or from the same version number after additional features (e.g. 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.
