Z and gz files.(be sure the files will be uncompressed correctly from another server),.
i have several files as .Z and .gz
i need to move them o another unix server.
they are thousands of files.
I need to be sure that once the files have been move they will be uncompressed successfully using uncompress and gunzip commands.
How can i be sure that they will be uncompressed correctly?
what do i have to review in both operating systems? both are unix.
Do i have to revie the version of the progrmas? what else? how?
please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

This could be done via a script relatively easily.
It should not matter about the versions of the programs.

Generally, no, but if you have any files
larger than 2GB, you might see some problems
with some older programs.

"UNIX" (or "unix") is not a complete
description of anything.
I'd probably make a "tar" archive of
everything, copy that to the destination
system, and unpack it there.

If the files were not already compressed, and
I wanted them uncompressed at the
destination, I'd probably compress the "tar"
archive, not the original files.
Are you planning to uncompress the files at
the destination, or are you just worried
about compatibility between "compress" and
"gzip" on the different ("unix") systems?
A person who was really worried about the
data might copy them to the destination, then
copy them back and compare those copies
against the originals.
