[Bug-tar] Tar size mismatches when used on file size 10 GB

[rakesh kumar]

Hi

i have followed the following steps and found discrepancies with tar utility 

step 1 :

find ./ -type f -mtime +7 -name "*.00*" | wc -l   =  13519 ( total files )

( the size of this files is appx : 10GB )


step 2: 

find ./ -type f -mtime +7 -name "*.00*" | xargs tar zcvf Archieve_7.tar.gz

step 3:

du -h Archieve_7.tar.gz : 12 M

step 4: 



i checked the contents using
tar -tvf Archieve_7.tar.gz = 1806

why the total 13519 files not archived in my case ?

i have tried tried tar instead of gz compression which also behaved similarly.

Any help is much appreciated !!
