Untar fail
Hi Team,
I have a file named as follows: aaa.tar.gz
Now I need to verify if the untar fails, then the script has to send a mail. In order to check this condition, I need a tar.gz file which is unable to untar it. Can anyone help me to create a file which I will be able to unzip successfully but unable to untar.
We are working on AIX 6.1 Env.
Can anyone help me to fix this issue?
Thank you.
