AT&T MERLIN LEGEND Release 2.0 System Programming Manual page 70

Programming with SPM
Convert uses two files: the existing Release 1.0 or 1.1 backup file (the
"convert from" file) and the converted file (the "convert to" file), which Convert
creates. The "convert to" file contains system programming information in
Release 2.0 format in an uncompressed form. The "convert from" file is
unchanged. Because uncompressed files take longer to process than
compressed files, you may want to restore this uncompressed backup to the
Release 2.0 control unit, and then create a new backup. This new backup is in
compressed form and does not have to be converted. For more information
about compressed and uncompressed files, see "Backup" earlier in this
chapter.
NOTE:
Once you begin to convert the backup file, you cannot stop the process.
