UCS files are not designed to be cross-version, so I'm actually surprised that the other one works after loading a 9.3.0 config. There's probably something in the config that is failing to load because the syntax changed between 9.3.0 and 9.4.5. You could try manually doing a bigpipe load on the command line and see if you can tell where it fails, and then manually edit the file to remove the offending line.

The proper way to upgrade (should be documented in the release notes) is to save a current config file as /config.ucs 

  
  bigpipe config save /config.ucs

and then run the local-install im file. It will then give you the option to roll the previous config forward. Then you don't need to restore a config.

Hope that helps,
