Explanation

A critical requirement for the backup and restore process in VMware NSX (and by extension, VCF) is version parity. The NSX Manager backup contains the database schema, configuration files, and state information specific to the version of the software that was running at the time the backup was taken. When performing a restore into a "clean" environment, the NSX documentation explicitly states that the target NSX Manager appliance must be of the exact same build version as the appliance that generated the backup. If an administrator attempts to restore a backup from version 4.1.x onto a newly deployed manager running version 4.2.x or 9.0 (as implies by "latest version"), the restore process will fail because the database schema of the newer version is incompatible with the older data structure.
