Thanks @JonathanQuinn we are using 10.7.1. I will give your suggestions a go and let you know if they solve the problem. Thanks again.

What version are you using? At 10.6.1 we fixed this problem:

BUG-000114941 Unable to restore a backup to a standby site if the initial restore of Portal fails and you attempt to restore the backup again.

That's with the restore, not export, though. To fix your problem, try to edit the serverID via the Admin API to point to the ID referenced in Portaladmin. I think it'll allow you to do that. If not, just edit the security-config.json file directly to update the serverID.
