Answer 2

You can check in DB how this is related...

catalog_product_linktable holds "link_type_id"(here you can check which id upsell or cross sell have), and then you just need to insert products to the table catalog_product_link and set the riht link_type_id to it. Best way to do this is to have some excel or something like that, map all products to its linked product id and just build insert queries and boom:) Clear cache, maybe you will need some reindexing - I am not sure about that and you should have related products on site.
