But how can i take backup in image install erp. give this command please
bench backup --with-files

you probably mean restore the db on a system with the same underlying running version ( 6.27 in the example here) and then update the new system to a new version, right?
how exact do the version have to be equal? I mean if I had a db from a 7.1.1 could I restore that on a 7.1.2 system i.e?
@Vrms not necessary the same version. its when you run bench migrate that the patches run. In case the patches break then you need to fix them. A db from 7.1.1 can be restored on 7.1.2 without much issues.
In this case he can restore the 6.27 DB in 7.1.2 directly and run bench migrate. Not sure if anything will break though.
