NAME

6       dar_slave - disk archive slave for remote access to a dar archive
7

SYNOPSIS

9       dar_slave [options] [<path>/]source
10
11       dar_slave -h
12
13       dar_slave -V
14

DESCRIPTION

16       dar_slave  reads  an  archive  and  listens  for dar orders on standard
17       input, sending asked parts of the archive on standard output.
18
19       Source is the basename of the archive to read.  By  default,  dar_slave
20       uses standard input and output to communicate with a dar process, which
21       may be running on the local host or on a remote host. It is possible to
22       change  the behavior of dar_slave to use named pipe instead of standard
23       input and output

OPTIONS

27       -h                  Displays help usage.
28
29       -V                  Displays version information.
30
31       -i <filename>       reads the orders from the  named  file  instead  of
32                           standard  input. In most cases the filename will be
33                           a named pipe.
34
35       -o <filename>       sends the data to the named file <filename> instead
36                           of standard output. In most cases the filename will
37                           be a named pipe.
38
39       -E <string>         string is a command to be launched between  slices.
40                           See dar(1) man page (same option) for more informa‐
41                           tion.
42
43       -Q                  Do not display  any  message  on  stderr  when  not
44                           launched from a terminal (for example when launched
45                           from an at job or crontab). Remains that any  ques‐
46                           tion  to  the  user  will be assumed a 'no' answer,
47                           which most of the time will abort the program.
48
49       -9 <num>            Defines the minimum number of digits to use for ar‐
50                           chive slice numbers. See the same option in dar man
51                           page for more details.
