How to upgrade from Elettra Calendar to MARCoNI-Z Calendar

Within the migration of the email collaboration platform from MARCoNI to MARCoNI-Z it's needed to move from the Elettra Collaboration Calendar (based on SOGo) to the new MARCoNI-Z Calendar (based on Zimbra). 
Since it's not possible to migrate all the existing calendars between the two systems, instructions on how to perform this move are given here.

Exporting a calendar from the Elettra Collaboration Calendar

You can export any calendars to iCal format (.ics extension).
