If you are copying the backup files to your new server, you don't need to
do an upgrade install. The regular install will find those files as long
as they are placed in the same place on your new server. It will be
/usr/OV.back.<version>
This is from 7.1.3 release notes:
The Tivoli NetView for UNIX, Version 7.1.3 program is a full image, and can
either
be a new installation, or an upgrade from previous versions of the Tivoli
NetView for
UNIX program (including Tivoli NetView for UNIX, Version 7.1). The
installation
instructions on all UNIX platforms for Tivoli NetView for UNIX, Version
7.1.3 are
identical to those described in the section “Installing the NetView Program
on UNIX”
in the Tivoli NetView Release Notes, Version 7.1, with the exception of the
Linux
Intel platform.
If you are upgrading from a previous version of Tivoli NetView, be sure to
remove
any old backup directories, such as one that might have been created if you
did an
upgrade installation from version 6.0 to version 7.1. Backup directories
are located
in the /usr directory and are named OV.back.version.
