We tried to backup our Websphere application but found that is has a deep deep deep directory stucture.
Tar faild due to the length of the path.
gtar seems to work but it seems to move long listings to a different folder in a different directory.
How can I "back" this up using a unix tool to where it will catch everything reglardless of the length of the path and allow me to move the archive and when I open it .. it lays everything back down.
Thanks In Advance
Ricardo

Re: tar failed with long path .. need alternative
Well, you already tried gtar. You could try pax(1) since it the recommended replacement for fbackup(1m)/frecover(1m).
Just use "-x pax".
Or you can use fbackup and frecover for HP-UX.
