I'll get a tarred file from a remote location in the format of .tar.gz which my program needs to un-tar it into a specific destination foler and a file
tar -C /local/server/destination/path/un-tar -zxvf /local/server/source/path/remote_file.txt.tar.gz stage_file.txt
but that's not what is happening......the un-tarred file though gets created in path /local/server/destination/path/un-tar but with the name remote_file.txt and NOT stage_file.txt!! Is there a way out?
During tar, the command used is
tar cvf - * | remsh system_name dd of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=10k
To untar all, we used
remsh system_name "dd if=/dev/rmt/0m ibs=10k" | tar xvf -
Question?
How to untar a specific file from remote?
