tar vs dump
Hi everybody,
My objective : copy a server, and be able to replicate it ( entirely) to a test environment. (Not for backing up the server) I have went through the man pages (i admit,not comprehensively) of tar and dump. I notice that they are loosely the same. since both allow me to extract what i need and later exploding the directories to where ever i want them. May i know which is more suited for my objective and why? If my objective is to back up , would dump be a better alternative? |
