Ignite UX gzip error

[Ganesh Balraman]

Hi all ,

when it try to create image on my system ,

it gives the following error after creating the image.( i think the image was not created succesful).

# make_sys_image -s local -d /image

After some time it gives gzip error failed to achive tar file.

But one file was created in /image/IGSRV12.gz @ 2.14Gb size.

What may be the issue.

Hi Ganesh

The standard gzip supplied by HP has a problem with archives greater than 2Gb. If you need to use it, rather use the GNU version or the one supplied at the HP Porting sites.
