OK, good to know it should work except for the point-in-time stuff.
Any idea why the forests I was trying to restore would have been greyed out in the restore-from-backup panel? Would that reflect an issue with there being point-in-time data in the ML4 data being restored or would it be because of something else? I checked the usual suspects, such as the forest names not matching or not having permissions on the files and those all seemed to be correct, but of course there’s still a strong chance it’s my user error. I haven’t had much time to work on this so when it didn’t work immediately I set it aside to pursue other avenues (and in particular, was able to make Flexrep push from ML4 to ML 9 work at appropriate speed, so that’s good).

In ML 4 the timestamp was defined based on the transaction but in later versions ( from 6 i guess ) it was long. So Point-in-time data will not work.

I will try that.

Alternatively, since you can restore into an ML 8 server, you can do another backup from the ML 8 server and then restore that into an ML 9 server.
