Before upgrading SecurePlatform, you should create a backup. To save time, many administrators use the command backup. This creates a backup of the Check Point configuration as well as the system configuration.
An administrator has installed the latest HFA on the system for fixing traffic problems after creating a backup file. There is a mistake in the very complex static routing configuration. The Check Point configuration has not been changed. Can the administrator use a restore to fix the errors in static routing?
A.
The restore is not possible because the backup file does not have the same build number (version).
B.
The restore is done by selecting Snapshot Management from the SecurePlatform boot menu.
C.
The restore can be done easily by the command restore and selecting the appropriate backup file.
D.
A back up cannot be restored, because the binary files are missing.
I’m pretty sure the answer should be A.

My hand-written revision notes also say “same OS/CP”, elsewhere I have written “Backups are OS sensitive, upgrade-exports are not”.
So I agree with “A”
