amarchiver – Create, extract or list amanda archive
Synopsis
- amarchiver –version|–create|–extract|–list [–verbose] [–file
file] [filename]…
Description
Amarchiver
Note that this tool is more limited than the Amanda archive library, and may not be appropriate for some archive files — particularly those which use non-strings in their filenames.
Options
–version
- print the amarchiver version
–create
- Create an amanda archive. Only the supplied filenames are included. With one –verbose, lists the filenames. With two, lists the filenames and sizes.
–list
- List the filenames in an amanda archive. No additional filenames are allowed on the command line.
–extract
- Extract an amanda archive. If filenames are supplied, only those files are extracted. Files are created in the current directory, suffixed with a dot (‘.’) and the attribute ID.
–verbose
- Give more information.
–file file
- Create, list or extract from the given file instead of stdin/stdout.
