Hello Victor, You are quite correct that you normally can only save the current configuration file; however I have just tested your assumption and this does work. The only snag was that I couldn't directly SCP the file onto the Juniper back in the correct directory (I didn't try as root), I put the file in /var/tmp then dropped into the shell and moved it over.
rollback rescue then loaded the file which I created.
