Nope.  What you do is have your inbound *.SU0 in one directory,
and then do a polyxarc into the other directory.  *IF* there
was sufficient space to do the decompress to create all the *.PKT,
then it will delete the *.SU0.  If there's any problem, it leaves
the *.SU0 there until you get around to fixing the problem.
Which is what I use for my integrity check of getting files from
one partition to the other.  I can't use "MOVE" to do that.
BFN.  Paul.
