Update QA environment - workflow manager databases

Question

We have a QA SharePoint 2013 environment we want to refresh from PROD. Workflow manager is already configured and working. I completed the refresh of the content databases but realized the 2013 workflow instances were orphaned. Does anyone know which of the Workflow manager databases also need to be copied to our QA? The WFInstanceManagementDB seems to be one (possibly containing the instances) but there are also the WFManagementDB, WFResourceManagementDB, SbManagementDB, SBMessageContainer01, SbGatewayDatabase that appear to be associated with WFM.

Thanks.

You should be able to make it work by making scope restore. Follow the procedures from SM for Disaster Recovery. This article also is good with step by step what needs to be done
