The traditional methods used to move files between systems are available also available for Charon-PAR emulated systems.
When using HP the original vendor or third-party Store, you should specify the ;COMPRESS (or equivalent) keyword to ensure that the resulting archive files are as small as possible. Compression can reduce space required to store TurboIMAGE files quite considerably. The ;PARTDB keyword is also recommended, to include any partial database files you may have.
To ensure that all files in the Hierarchical File System (HFS) are included store the " / " fileset; Store also interprets the " @.@.@ " fileset as " / ".

There are two ways you can connect a tape device to a Charon-PAR host system. If you build your server with a SCSI card, you can connect any SCSI tape device that works with MPE/iX. You can also connect a HP USB DAT 72 drive to the Charon-PAR host system which offers a low-cost solution if you currently use DDS3 or DDS4 media.
Any HP original vendor or third-party backup product may be used to restore files on the Charon-PAR guest system.

FTP can be used to transfer individual files. However, it is far more efficient to use it in conjunction with any STORE product that can store-to-disk, preferably compressed. Use FTP to transfer the resulting archive file(s) to the MPE/iX guest system and restore-from-disk to extract the contents. Restore-from-disk results in files being created with correct attributes and security settings which is not necessarily the case when transferring individual files with FTP. This method does require enough free disk space on both systems to hold the store-to-disk archive file(s). If disk space is tight, individual accounts (or even groups) can be processed instead of storing the whole system.
