QUESTION
After creating a backup of the users home directories called backup.cpio
you are asked to restore a file called memo.ben. What command
should you type?
Correct Answer: cpio –iF backup.cpio memo.ben
Explanation: The ‘cpio’ command is used to create backups or re-
store files from a backup. The –i option is to extract something. The
F option is to specify a file. Here we are extracting memo.ben from a
file named backup.cpio. Reference: http://www.oreillynet.com/linux/cmd/c/cpio.htm
QUESTION
You wish to restore the file memo.ben which was backed up in the
tarfile MyBackup.tar. What command should you type?
Correct Answer: tar xf MyBackup.tar memo.ben
Explanation: Tarfiles are created using the ‘tar’ utility. Therefore,
you should use the ‘tar’ utility to extract the files. The x option is
to extract and the f option is to specify a filename to extract from.
