Sheesh. find $ptn | egrep -v "$(cat tarX_$ptn)" | afio -z -Z -P bzip2 -v -T 3k | -o {workdir}/${now}_${f}.afio > ${workdir}/${now}_${f}.log 2>&1 It's like a better cpio. Unlike tar, you can have corrupted files within, and still get the rest. |

How is it better than cpio? I've used cpio extensively since it is part of any *nix out there, old and new. cpio is also really fast as we learned when we transferred stuff from some really old legacy Solaris systems and a positively ancient NetApp filer to modern hardware a few years back. |
