    Yes, that should be ok. The only things to be aware of, are you restoring to a different BIG-IP platform? If so then there may be differences in interfaces/naming. You would also need to add the no-platform-check flag to the UCS command in tmsh. Other things to consider are it'll overwrite the license too. If you don't want it to overwrite the license you can use the no-license flag. Finally, if any new setting was introduced in 11.5.3 that wasn't in 11.4 then the restore process may flag this up for investigation. Would suggest doing this in a lab environment first.

     

    Hope this helps,
