+Within each of the version folders, copy your PowerShell .psm1, .psd1, or PowerShell module **.dll** files that make up a module into the respective version folder. Zip up the module folder so that Azure Automation can import it as a single .zip file. While Automation only shows one of the versions of the module imported, if the module package contains side-by-side versions of the module, they are all available for use in your runbooks or DSC configurations.  
 
 While Automation supports modules containing side-by-side versions within the same package, it does not support using multiple versions of a module across module package imports. For example, you import **module A**, which contains versions 1 and 2 into your Automation account. Later you update **module A** to include versions 3 and 4, when you import into your Automation account, only versions 3 and 4 are usable within any runbooks or DSC configurations. If you require all versions - 1, 2, 3, and 4 to be available, the .zip file your import should contain versions 1, 2, 3, and 4.

+      - question: |
+          Can I copy restore points created by the Azure Backup service portal from one region to another?
+        answer: |
+          No. Currently, Azure Backup supports only copying restore points from one vault to another. You can [move snapshots to a different region using the VM restore point APIs](../virtual-machines/manage-restore-points.md#copy-a-vm-restore-point-between-regions), but this isn't supported for Vault-tier recovery points.
