Solaris

hi,

i would like to know if it is posible to create the flash archive and in the same line add another command to save it in another server through SCP.

flarcreate -n "sv756flash" -c -X excludefilelist |...

i appreciate your help.

thanks a lot.

hi, i'm not sure if this works but give a try:

Code:

flarcreate -a <author> -n <name> -S - | ssh root@<ip-address> "cd /save/path; cat - > test.flar"

ssh is secure shell, to move *.flar archive you must use scp to upload archive on other server on the network.

I think beta17 command seems to be syntactically correct ( you need to check the man page for flarcreate ) but I'm not sure if it's working or not never been in such situation to give an accurate answer .

solaris_user suggested another alternative using Secure Copy SCP

But I recommend NFS over SSH one good reason for this is that NFS is faster than SSH otherwise you can tunnel NFS over SSH also bare in mind that SCP has a limitation in file sizes.
You might look here

this is not correct, you can use directly ssh to copy a file remotely too.

you can use ssh in combination with tar to make backups:

Code:

# tar zcvf - /dir/to/backup | ssh root@remote.server.com "cat > /backup/blabla.tar.gz"

try it and you will see! ;-)
