Thank You for the advice. There is a heavy resource constraint so I will try to explore more. I could think of one solution and I would appreciate if someone could provide a better one...
I would do a
Code:
gunzip -c rrc00.tar.gz | tar -xvf -
And then setup a crontab to look for new files in the current directory with a certain extension. If there is, then I would gzip the file. This is the simplest I could think of. Please let me know if it is the best though
Not to complain, but the large graphic at the top of the page ensures that I have to scroll down everytime I change pages. Maybe the problem is the 1024x768 of my laptop screen, but it does seem excessive.

Is there any smaller amount of time the sleeper can sleep for... (4 Replies)

I have a script and it works fine, but I am sure this can be shrunk down to something much better. I would appreciate someone taking a crack at it for me.

virt-tar-out
virt-tar-out(1) Virtualization Support virt-tar-out(1)NAME
virt-tar-out - Pack a virtual machine disk image directory into a tarball.
SYNOPSIS
virt-tar-out -a disk.img /dir files.tar
virt-tar-out -d domain /dir files.tar
virt-tar-out -d domain /dir - | gzip --best > files.tar.gz
DESCRIPTION
"virt-tar-out" packs a virtual machine disk image directory into a tarball.
The first parameter is the absolute path of the virtual machine directory. The second parameter is the tar file to write. Use "-" to
write to standard output.
EXAMPLES
Download the home directories from a guest:
virt-tar-out -d MyGuest /home - | gzip --best > homes.tar.gz
JUST A SHELL SCRIPT WRAPPER AROUND GUESTFISH
This command is just a simple shell script wrapper around the guestfish(1) "tar-out" command. For anything more complex than a trivial
copy, you are probably better off using guestfish directly.
OPTIONS
Since the shell script just passes options straight to guestfish, read guestfish(1) to see the full list of options.
SEE ALSO guestfish(1), virt-cat(1), virt-copy-in(1), virt-copy-out(1), virt-edit(1), virt-tar-in(1), http://libguestfs.org/.
