Tar Task

A tar file combines one or more files into one larger file for distribution or archiving purposes.

Typically the Tar task will be used by adding a File Set through the

Add

button. Doing so will place all files found into the

Output File

specified. When creating a tar file it is common practice to name the file with a .tar extension.

The Tar Task can also compress the output file with GZip compression. It is recommended to name a compressed tar file with a .tar.gz extension.

Compression tasks cannot compress or decompress files or folders located from SMB Network Shares or Encrypted Folders. Alternatively, files or folders from these resources can be copied into a Project Workspace to be compressed or decompressed, and then moved to a SMB Network Share or Encrypted folder.
