tar-limits?????
Thanks n9ninchd, and NoOne for your responses!
The man -s5 largefile did not work on the True64 box, but it did work on the Solaris!
herez the latest!
1.initial dmp file---> 15 GB
2.tar complained --> compressed the file--> 10 GB
3.now tar worked! (No errors)
4.On listing the contents of the tar tape
the file was listed as a 8.5GB file!
5.We did not have any problems, when we restored the file
from tape to a Solaris box.(File is 8.5GB)
6. Right now we are uncompressing it--
Somehow, all this seems a bit weird to me!-- no errors/complaints, but the file sizes are not the same.
I am waiting to restore the Oracle tables to confirm......
We are using Legato for backup- but that has not been working, and we are trying alternate backup of the critical files.
yes, we'll probably do the "dump"- but that'll have to be during DB downtime!
Any thoughts/suggestions......?

amverify
AMVERIFY(8) System Manager's Manual AMVERIFY(8) NAME
amverify - check an Amanda tape for errors SYNOPSIS
amverify config [ slot [ runtapes ] ] DESCRIPTION
Amverify reads an Amanda format tape and makes sure each backup image can be processed by amrestore and, if possible, the appropriate restore program (e.g. tar). Amverify runs amrestore on each file of the tape and pipes the output to a restore program (if available) with an option to create a cata- logue of the backup. The catalogue itself is discarded. Only the success or failure of the operation itself is reported. If the backup image cannot be processed by the restore program, e.g. if it was written on a different operating system, the image is sent through dd to /dev/null. This still determines if the tape is readable, but does not do any internal consistency check on the image. If config is set up to use a tape changer, the slot argument may be used to choose the first tape to process. Otherwise, the current slot is used. The runtapes configuration parameter determines how many tapes are processed unless it is specified on the command line. See the amanda(8) man page for more details about Amanda. AUTHOR
