You can not upgrade from 3.x to 4.x without changing the key as they changed the key format. Manually upgrade the backup router once and then do the backups. Be aware, a backup file loaded on a new board changes the MAC addresses to match the original board.

Hello all,
Can anyone give me an assistance on how i can create a backup server from my 
main production router?
I  have two PCs with mikrotik OS installed on them, one of them is running  
routerOS v4.4(this the main router) and the other one is on ver3.30  which is 
the one i want to use as backup. I tried to upgrade to v4.4 to  be on thesame 
version with the main router, after upgrading it was  requesting for a licence 
key.
I want someone to tell me how i can  upgrade to ver4.4 without asking for the 
key since i want to replicate  what is on the main router to backup.
please any information will be appreciated.

regards
Chris
