Question about "restore"

I'm in the process of ISY --> EISY migration. Following instructions (https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=Eisy:User_Guide#Migrating_from_994_to_eisy). I have an old board, so can't migrate z-wave. That's no problem, I don't have many devices at all. So I'm trying to restore my programs. Did the ISY backup.

Curious ... Where is the backup located? What is the name?

At the restore step, instructions state: "If you are not migrating your Z-Wave network, Use (Admin Console | File | Restore ISY) to restore either your Eisy / Polisy backup or your ISY-994 backup"

I don't see "Restore ISY" in my File menu. I do see "Restore Devices". Is that the correct option? When I click on that, I get a confirmation popup specifically about INSTEON.

Also, my ISY firmware is v.5.0.11B. Is that okay, or do I need to update to 5.3.4 to successfully migrate programs? Or is that not even possible because of my board?

The ISY backup is located on the harddrive of your computer.  It's named IoX-Backup.v(your firmware version #)_(date of backup)

Your existing ISY firmware is OK for the migration.

If you're using the same PLM you had on the ISY, then power down both systems, Remove the PLM from the ISY and connect it to the eisy, then power up the eisy.

On the eisy, under FILE, select restore IoX. Select the ISY Backup file you just created

Be sure to update the firmware on your eisy. 

After you restore your backup to the eisy check all your programs and scenes as some may need a little tweak.
