Hi
I have a single large file 11gb that I need to copy/backup to tape then restore on another system. I tried tar but that complained about the file being too large Anyone have any suggestions how I can do this with AIX 5.2 Much appreciated.

In addition to what is in the mentioned thread you could also try the following:
tar -cvf - <yourfile> | gzip -9 <name_of_resultfile> Unpack it by: gzip -cd <name_of_resultfile> | tar -xvf - bakunin
