There is no restore with replication on. It would cause endless problems.

Restore is expected to be for a single master in a catastrophic
situation. The others will require re-init from this master.

It is very persnickety. The versions do not match.

There are sometimes subtle differences between versions of IPA, even in
minor releases, so it is not considered safe to restore between versions.

You could hack out the version check and roll the dice, or downgrade the
packages to match the backed-up value.
