20.5. Archiving File Systems With ACLs
By default, the
dump command now preserves ACLs during a backup operation. When archiving a file or file system with tar, use the --acls option to preserve ACLs. Similarly, when using cp to copy files with ACLs, include the --preserve=mode option to ensure that ACLs are copied across too. In addition, the -a option (equivalent to -dR --preserve=all) of cp also preserves ACLs during a backup along with other information such as timestamps, SELinux contexts, and the like. For more information about dump, tar, or cp, refer to their respective man pages.
The
star utility is similar to the tar utility in that it can be used to generate archives of files; however, some of its options are different. Refer to Table 20.1, “Command Line Options for star” for a listing of more commonly used options. For all available options, refer to man star. The star package is required to use this utility.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
-c | Creates an archive file. |
-n | Do not extract the files; use in conjunction with -x to show what extracting the files does. |
-r | Replaces files in the archive. The files are written to the end of the archive file, replacing any files with the same path and file name. |
-t | Displays the contents of the archive file. |
-u | Updates the archive file. The files are written to the end of the archive provided the following are true:
|
-x | Extracts the files from the archive. If used with -U and a file in the archive is older than the corresponding file on the file system, the file is not extracted. |
-help | Displays the most important options. |
-xhelp | Displays the least important options. |
-/ | Do not strip leading slashes from file names when extracting the files from an archive. By default, they are stripped when files are extracted. |
-acl | When creating or extracting, archives or restores any ACLs associated with the files and directories. |
