[Commands]Unix -- Compress & Decompress

|VMP| · 01/22/2013, 11:51

Hi

I am here to leave some commands useful when you want to make backups of files on your server, or you want to compress the Serverfiles to send to the dedicated server or something else:

Compress:

Code:

tar -zcvf filename.gz directory

Example:

Code:

tar -zcvf metin2.gz /home/metin2

To Decompress:

Code:

tar -zxvf filename.gz -C /directory

Example:

Code:

tar -zxvf metin2.gz -C /home

Other commands to Compress and Decompress:

Compress:

Code:

tar cvf filename.tar.gz /directory

Example:

Code:

tar cvf metin2.tar.gz /home/metin2

To Decompress:

Code:

cd /directory

Code:

tar xvf filename.tar.gz

Example:

Code:

cd /home

Code:

tar xvf metin2.tar.gz

Well, that is all (:

Kind regards,

VMP.
