====Transfer Saveset from microCT to XtremeCT====

You can create a SAV set of your project on the VivaCT and transfer it to the Xtreme system, or vice-versa.
First, create the SAV set using the command:
<pre>
For example:
$ BACKUP/LOG DISK3:[MICROCT.PROJECTS.SB.MYPROJECT...]*.*;* -
     SYS$SCRATCH:MYPROJECT.SAV/SAV
</pre>
This creates the MYPROJECT.SAV file in the scratch directory.  Now zip the file:
<pre>
$ cd sys$scratch
$ zip "-V" MYPROJECT.ZIP MYPROJECT.SAV  (NOTE: must use quotes and a capital V!!!!)
</pre>
FTP the .ZIP file to SODOR ( in binary mode!!!), and then FTP it off onto your destination system (Viva or Xtreme).  See the appropriate HowTo for FTP instructions.  Once you've FTP'd it, unzip the file:
<pre>
$ unzip MYPROJECT.ZIP
</pre>
Finally, unpack the contents of the .SAV file:
<pre>
$ BACKUP/LOG MYPROJECT.SAV/SAV DISK3:[MICROCT.PROJECTS.MYPROJECT] <--- or whatever destination directory
</pre>
NOTE:  transferring a .SAV directly from VMS to VMS should work, but not via any third operating system (like SODOR) - so zipping is always the safe way to make sure it works.
