Description

Often when untaring a large (100+ GB) pulp_data.tar file, I get this error:

"tar: Unexpected EOF in archive\ntar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now"

Using this command to untar: tar --selinux --overwrite -xf {{ backup_dir }}/pulp_data.tar --exclude=var/lib/pulp/katello-export -C /

This may have something to do with backups being created on sshfs-mounted directories, though I'm unsure of the root cause of this.

Maybe there is a way we can check for a corrupted pulp_data.tar file after creation?
