Default Proper Backup Question

Hello,

Voyager says that backups are backing up the /config folder and I assume that is were the configuration script lies for the firewall rules. In the event of a complete system failure would I be able to recover from this backup or would I need the system to be preinstalled. I exported the smartcenter database with the installation CD and I assume that if I had nothing the copying over the /config backup would not be sufficient to rebuild the firewall. Or could I just install the ckpt fw version and replace the /config folder with the backup that I have? In the event of a total failure (smartcenter failure and fw machine) would I need a database backup to get a machine back up and running?
