Hi all,
I m not sure is this the right place to post this topic but i am having some trouble to actually tar a huge file by excluding some undesired files inside.
i had try some thing like:
1. creating a file call xfiles which contains all the files and folders that i wanna exclude.
eg.
/cms/html/jum10/sqlnet.log
/cms/html/jum10/BILL
/cms/html/jum10/site/ets
2. then i call the command:
tar -cvf jum10.tar jum10 --exclude-file=/tcms/html/xfiles
PS:my pwd is /cms/html
some how this command works without excluding the files i specified.
anything i had missed out?>
i even tried with few more command like tar -cvfX .. but all not working..
can any experts in unix help up?
thx
