tar [-cxtzjvfppn] files and directories ....
Parameters:
-C: Create a compressed file parameter directive (the meaning of Create);
-x: Unlock the parameter instructions for a compressed file!
-T: View the files inside the Tarfile!
In particular, in the release of the parameters, c/x/t can only exist one! Cannot exist at the same time!
Because it is not possible to compress and decompress simultaneously.
-Z: Do you have the properties of gzip at the same time? i.e. do I need gzip compression?
Example one: Package all the files in the/etc directory into/tmp/etc.tar
[[email protected] ~]# TAR-CVF/TMP/ETC.TAR/ETC <== package only, do not compress!
[[email protected] ~]# tar-zcvf/tmp/etc.tar.gz/etc <== packaged, compressed with gzip
Example two: Check out what files are in the above/tmp/etc.tar.gz file?
[Email protected] ~]# tar-ztvf/tmp/etc.tar.gz
# because we use gzip compression, so to check the file in the tar file,
# you have to add Z to this parameter! It's important!
Example three: Extracting the/tmp/etc.tar.gz file under/USR/LOCAL/SRC
[Email protected] ~]# CD/USR/LOCAL/SRC
[Email protected] src]# tar-zxvf/tmp/etc.tar.gz
