Copy command in Aix for Symbolic Links
I need to copy a directory from a production system to a test system on the same Aix server. However I need to ensure that the soft links are preserved as part of the copy ( therefore I guess the cp command is not the way to go )
What command can I use in Aix to achieve this copy ?
thanks in anticipation
