Tar backup
I am trying to do a full system backup using tar. It then after maybe 12 or so hours comes up with tar: write error: unexpected EOF. I have thoroughly cleaned the drive and tried to use a different drive but it still gives me this error. Can someone help. I am on solaris 8.

You tar file is too big.
split the tar into seperate commands e.g. tar -cvf backup1.tar / /var /opt tar -cvf backup2.tar /usr /home you get the idea |
