Chapter 4
Migrating From Mac OS X Server Version 1.2

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
10.3 server using FTP. Use the
-
c
flag of the
tar
command to indicate you want to
create a new archive file in tar format. Use the
-
f
flag 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"
