Re: [CentOS] zip alternative?

Have you tried gzip or bzip?

Hi,

Recently I've got several errors in one of my backups systems. The backup system uses basic tools: rsync, mysqldump, and zip and have worked fine until a few days ago.

The zip command shows an error like this: size limit exceeded.

So I've found out an alernative : p7zip. It seems to has all the needed features:

• available package (in Dag's repo)
• 64 bits for size (http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3031109)
• support several compression format

¿What do you know about this tool?

TIA.
