When you bundle files, such as with tar, it becomes inconvenient to find individual files. Instead of restoring large collections from tape, you may wish to construct an index as soon as you create the collection. For instance, if you create a tar like this: | |||
tar cvvf /nearline/def-sponsor/user/mycollection.tar > /nearline/def-sponsor/user/mycollection.index | |||

tar tvvf /nearline/def-sponsor/user/mycollection.tar > /nearline/def-sponsor/user/mycollection.index | |||
