You could always use split(1) to break up the archive to spread it
across multiple disks; then you would have an easier time dealing with
the archive format itself.

1. Extracting files with tar and uncompress fails with tar: Archive - EOF not on block boundary
Hi,
Two(2) tared then compressed files were created using the following in
a directory where there are a few hundred files on a Sun Solaris 2.6
server:
tar -cvf - [a-k]* 2> /tq03/backup/backup_$dd/data_ltoz.log$dd | \
compress -cf > /tq03/backup/backup_$dd/data_ltoz_$dd.$SID.Z
tar -cvf - [l-z]* 2> /tq03/backup/backup_$dd/data_ltoz.log$dd | \
compress -cf > /tq03/backup/backup_$dd/data_ltoz_$dd.$SID.Z
I run the following commands to extract the files on a different
server (still Solaris 2.6) in a different directory than the files are
from:
uncompress -cf /tq01/clone_source/oradata/data_atok_020202.prod.Z |
tar xvf –
uncompress -cf /tq01/clone_source/oradata/data_ltoz_020202.prod.Z |
tar xvf –
The first is successfully extracted but during the 2nd extract of the
following error is returned:
Several files successfully extracted…
system01.dbf
system02.dbf
system03.dbf
system04.dbf
tar: Archive - EOF not on block boundary
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
erpdev:/tq01/test/testdata$
Does anyone have any ideas on how to extract the files? I am thinking
data_ltoz_020202.prod.Z is corrupt, hope not but have not found
another reason for the error. Ran tar tzvf data_ltoz_020202.prod.Z
and get the same error.
TIA,
Tad Stephens
