bozon asked whether ontape in version 10 can read version 9.21 archives, since restoring production copies to test required downgrading the test server. Obnoxio The Clown said it would be unsupported anyway and suggested dbexport or dbcopy. Neil Truby said no and mentioned an xC4 bug. Tilman Model-Bosch recalled it was a feature request delayed to a later version. Not possible.

Is there a way to have version 10 of ontape read version 9.21 archives?
The Configuration Management (CM) people tried put failed. I just
assumed you couldn't do it so I never tried. The problem is that
production is 9.21 but we are testing 10 getting ready for the glorious
day that we upgrade to 10.0 UC4. So now inorder to restore a production
copy to our test system we have to down grade a test server restore the
9.21 and then re-upgrade the server. It would be OK if we didn't have 3
instances per test server running that had to be off line while we were
restoring the production servers which took 4 - 6 hours.

I suspect that even if this did work, it would be entirely unsupported.
Why not try dbexport or dbcopy or something?

Of course not.

This bug in xC4 seems to be biting a lot of people:
