backup utility
hi dears,
I am using HP DDS4 drive for backup,using tar command i can backup and restore data but what if i want to see what is inside the tar files stored on DDS media??? tar command only shows the .tar files stored on media but i want to see the contents of that particular tar file. Thanks in advance Inder |
Here's a mini-Howto I wrote a long time ago:
************************************************************************************** To list the contents of an archive: $ tar -tvf <archive> To list only the directories do: $ tar -tf archive.tar | grep /$ ************************************************************************************** Extracting individual files from an archive: tar -xvf <archive> <filename> The filename must be as it appears in the archive; use tar -tvf to get exact file name. ************************************************************************************** |
