Piping to /dev/rmt0 tape ?
I am trying to find a way to do the following on an AIX 4.2 with Korn:
tar cvfpdl - . | compress > /dev/rmt0 The /dev/rmt0 is the device we use when we tar directly to it. I want to compress a folder's content to tape. Our current TAR does not have compression at all. We only have 'compress' as compression command. When I use the command above, it shows it started to TAR some files but then it failes with a message: A system call received a parameter that is not valid. Also, I read there is a GNU tar with compression but do not know if it would work on an 4.2 AIX |
