Apple 034-2344 manual Create archive files

Step 2: Create archive files

Save all the data files that you want to reuse with Mac OS X Server version 10.3. In step 4 you’ll move the files described below, as well as the export file created in step 1, to the version 10.3 computer.

For large amounts of data, you may want to create one or more tar archives, using the tar command in the Terminal application; tar archives can be transferred to the version

10.3server using FTP. Use the -cflag of the tar command to indicate you want to create a new archive file in tar format. Use the -fflag to identify the archive file name. Use the -v(verbose) flag to view useful information as the command executes:

tar -cvf /MyHFSVolume/MM.tar /MyHFSVolume/Macintosh\ Manager

The escape character (\ in the example above) indicates a space in the name. You can also use quotation marks to handle embedded spaces:

tar -cvf /MyHFSVolume/MM.tar "/MyHFSVolume/Macintosh Manager"
