It depends on how much you are willing to potentially lose and rebuild. Your rules are stored in the rulebases_5_0.fws, your objects in the objects_5_0.C, and your users in the fwauth.NDB. On a Windows SmartCenter, fwauth.NDB is a pointer to somewhere else. 'fwauth.NDB18' or something like that with a number at the end.
I've been told by support that those three (or four) are enough to recover your policy and so forth, but you will need to create a new ICA and reestablish SIC with everything. They didn't tell me what needs to be backed up to keep the ICA.
