"Help Me!!" problems with backup tar command LTO
by jjleonb from LinuxQuestions.org on (#590QX)
Greetings,
First of all, I'm doing something wrong, any advice is welcome:
I'm making a backup of a full directory in a LTO Drive.
This is the command:
Code:tar cvf /dev/st0 /mnt/pve/directory nameHowever It begins properly but when it finds a file larger that 700GB, it gets stuck and doesn't go any further.
I don't compress this directory because it's a backup directory, and the files are already compressed type .lzo.
It's like something is missing
