There is a way to create backups in 7.3 that are compatible with 7.4, 
but this requires 7.3.00.25 as well.

This is definitely possible, at least when you use the .tgz installations. 
Installing an rmp package and adding a tgz package will also work, but 
the state after you uninstalled the rpm is anyones guess.

dbmcli inst_enum will list the installed releases and
dbmcli -R <dependent_path> ... db_create will alow you to choose a 
specific installation to create a new database.
