Hi,

I need to create a multi-volume archive of some files with long length filename.
All volumes of this archive must have unique(in archive) labels.

Is it possible to realize such functionality using tar utility only?

If i using GNU tar format i can set unique label on each volume (and
get it), but i can't store long length filenames(warnings appears) in
this f
If i using POSIX tar format i can't set unique label on each volume
(and can't get), but no problem with filenames.

I try to do it such way:.

# tar  --format=posix -V Label -L 1000 -cMf /tmp/archive_vol1
/tmp/long_length_fname_files


my tar version = 1.22

Any suggestions?  How to get two functionality(long length fnames and
volume labels in multi-volume archive) using only one format of tar?

// sorry my poor english :) //
