I want to install Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 in a Virtual machine.
I have download the OVA image of Cisco web page: Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 Plug and Play for Virtual Appliance "PNP-KICKSTART-VM-1.2.11-medium.ova".
http://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=284396249&flowid=39422&softwareid=284272932&release=1.2.0&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=&reltype=latest
I have seen that there are a lot of patch files.
Do I need install any patch? Which patch should I install?
The client has buy this licenses:
Ordered Part Number License Type Included Part Numbers Used with Product
R-PI12-BASE-K9 Base License -Prime Intrasfructure 1.2
L-PI12-LF-100 Lifecycle
L-PI12-LF-100-LIC
L-PILMS42-100 LMS 4.2
I want to make a backup of the system (virtual machine VM with Cisco Prime 1.2 installed) and in case that the physical machine goes down I can run Cisco Prime 1.2 in a new server without to re-install the machine.
Which is the best way to make a backup of the system?
I can see that in the Quick start guide explain how Migrating to a New Cisco Prime Infraestructure 1.2.1.12 System:

1.- back up the Data from Existing System
Ensure that you have installed the appropriate point patch for your existing system.
In my case which is the patch that I need to install?
2.- Install a New Prime Infrastructure System and Migrating the Data from the Backup.
Should I follow this steps to make a backup of the system (Virtual Machine with Cisco Prime 1.2 installed) or I should to follow other steps?
Can I install NetBackup to make a backup of the Virtual Machine? Should I make a snapshot?
Could you help me?
