Hello, I am enough new in doing backups on Linux. So I am just starting discover the power of tar. At a momet I do backup into tar file (tar -c -gzip /serv1/ > /backup/serv1.tar ), however creted backup file exceeds 4GB size, so taring hangs ... (SuSE 7.2 2.4.4-4GB ). What are solutions ? I found in tar documentation option --multi-volume (Informs tar that it should create or otherwise operate on a multi-volume tar archive), but for me it is says nothing... I would appresiate any advice :) Kestutis
