Server hangs when i give the following command

[Pankaj Batra]

Hi,
Thanks Clark, I hope that works but whenever I try to give this command with "z" then this error comes.
for instance 
tar xvfzP /dev/st0 /usr2 /usr3 ( It DONT works)
tar  xvPf /dev/st0 /usr2 /usr3   ( It works)

but i need to work with "z"


Anyother solution.

Pankaj,

I didn't see where you may have received a reply.  In case you have not,
you need to change the order of your tar options, "f" is always last.
xvfzP --> xvzPf

Hi techies
                I am using Hp Xeon 3.0Gz server with 1 GB RAM and RAID 5
configured and Red Hat 8.0 installed.
I am facing a problem, when i give following command :-

tar xvfzP filename.tgz /usr2 /usr3

then after abt 30 seconds server hangs and the following error displays
:

NMI received, Dazed and still trying,there must be some hardware fault
with the RAM chips.

Please help me out.


Thanks in advance.
