Back up your existing CMS configuration before upgrading the software
HP recommends making a backup of your pre-6.1 environment before upgrading the software.
The upgrade process is not reversible. If, after you begin, you decide not to complete the upgrade
to HP Insight Software 6.1, a backup copy of your pre-6.1 environment is required to restore
your CMS to the pre-upgrade state.
