I am using the following for creating the tgz files:
tar zcf - /usr/folder | split -b 30720m - /usr/archive.tgz
Now I get three files: archive.tgzaa, archive.tgzab and archive.tgzac
So again I want to assemble those three archives into one tgz file...
cat archive.tgza* | (tar x) tar: Archive is compressed. Use -z option tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
Then i did:
cat archive.tgza* | (tar z) tar: You must specify one of the `-Acdtrux' options Try `tar --help' or `tar --usage' for more information.
And then finally:
cat archive.tgza* | (tar xz)
worked but it started unpacking the archive... How can I simply join it back into one archive ?
Thanks !
