zip -r <directory> failing due to 2GB limit - Just asking opinion
Hi,
Am trying to run zip -r on a 2.4G directory and it is failing with the error below. I believe this is because of the 2G limit of the zip program.
Initial workaround I used is to tar -cvf client_intall.tar ./client_install and then do gzip client_install.tar which works fine but is a two (2) step process.
From Googling I found the following which looks better and is a one-liner, I mean sort of.
So using that link, I do as below:
My question is, is it possible to get around without having to do the cd client_install thingy? Will it be better to use cpio instead?
Any idea how to get around this limit? I have a 42GB database backup file (.dmp) taking up disk space because neither tar nor cpio are able to put it onto a tape. I am on a SUN Solaris using SunOS 5.8. I would appreciate whatever help can be provided. Thanks! (9 Replies)

Is there any limitation for the size of the zip file?... (4 Replies)
