Backup and restore will NOT migrate the data. The upgrade instructions are in the 0.10 docs, and there's also a white paper and a webinar for upgrading from 0.9.x
http://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v0.10/administration/upgrading/ https://www.influxdata.com/technical-papers/ https://www.influxdata.com/videos-training/ For the purposes of upgrading, 1.1 and 1.0 are effectively identical (and have only very minor changes from 0.13).
