Thread: PITR with MS-DOS shell

PITR with MS-DOS shell

Reading the manual for PITR, I see the backup commands are tar, cpio, and rsync.

What DOS shell commands recommended: copy, xcopy?  Is there something better?

You want to find rsync or the equivalent for windows.

I'm using it on Vista and have not had any problems transferring data
to/from linux and solaris systems.

Any command that copies files. Or an integrated backup product.
