[REQUEST] Feature for "backup and restore" to migrate from one Zigbee coordinator HW adapter to other hardware? #51

Open Hedda opened 4 years ago

This idea came from developer discussion between @Adminiuga & @puddly in https://github.com/zha-ng/zigpy-znp/issues/10

Would it be possible to script a "backup and restore" migration feature/function built into zigpy radio libraries that allow users to relatively easily migrate from one Zigbee coordinator hardware adapter to a other Zigbee coordinator hardware adapter if use same radio library and maybe even if they are not using the exact same hardware MCU chip model/module?

Migrations such as these could become common as new more powerful adapters become available:

Would be a more awesome feature if could also migrate from older TI chips to newer TI chips:

Would really be an awesome feature to have if could be made user-friendly for integration like ZHA!
