a3ComBackupNecessary

This object is used to warn the user that any 
previous backup that they have taken may no longer be used to 
restore the configuration to this device.  It is therefore 
imperative that the user takes a new backup.
          
This object shall return true(1) if the user has taken a backup 
in the past and the current hardware configuration of the 
device does not match the configuration at the time of the 
previous backup.  In such a case, the backup file will either 
contain commands that can not be executed on the current 
hardware or will not contain configuration data for additional 
hardware.  The user needs either to take a new backup or to 
restore the original configuration.  Note that if the user 
restores the original hardware configuration, this item shall
(by definition) return to false(2).
