Is the TestStandDatabaseOptions.ini file backward compatable

I've been logging data to a MySQL database with TestStand v3.0 using a schema that I created.  I see that in TestStand v3.1, that a MySQL schema has been provided as part of the Database Options.  I'd like to upgrade my v3.0 testers so that they are using the same MySQL schema provided by NI that the v3.1 testers are using.  The simplest way that I can think of to do this would be to copy the TestStandDatabaseOptions.ini file from a v3.1 install over to the v3.0 installs.  Can that be done, or would it cause problems?

I would recommend looking at the INI file created by TestStand and comparing it with your older INI database file.  TestStand is backwards compatible, so you should be able to use your old file without any problems.  You may just see TestStand defining more variables than you may have in your original INI file.  However, you should run into little trouble upgrading.
