you can't. You have to install 3.3, restore the database, then upgrade to whatever version you want to go to.

Can't I advance test this database ??? Only instalation ,upgrade ....

 

[whykap]

what do you mean advance test?
A back up taken from a 3.3 ccm can only be restored to an exact same version ccm.
There is no way around that as there are database differences between versions.

you need to install 3.3 on the test PC, restore the database, then upgrade to 4.1.3.

The process should be as follows:

Run the Cisco UPgradeAssist for CCM 3.x upgrade to v4.x

This will ensure your server meets basic requirements.

Carry out CCM 3.x upgrade to v4.1

Confirm Upgrade successful and Event Viewer for errors, start services from CCM.

Now Upgrade your BARS to the same version you will install on the rebuilt CCM say v4.09

Carry out a BARS Backup.

Now the fun part - Flatten the server by installing the h/w detection disk for CCM v4.1

Install as instructed , and load the BARS v4.09

Now carry out a BARS Restore

You should now have a valid build.
