Is there an unzip command on ExtremeXOS?

[Ali_Askari]

I have a telnet connection with my switch using a C++ program I've written. I then have to upload 300-350 .xsf scripts to the switch using tFTP. The problem I have is that uploading the scripts takes around 2 minutes. In other sections of my code I have to wait just for this transfer to complete.

If I zip these files and upload just one big zip file the transfer is much faster, 10-12 seconds. But I have not found a way to unzip the scripts once the zip file is on the switch. Is there a way I could unzip the files?

I'd appreciate any other comment/suggestion.

Thanks Andrew. Where can I use the tar and untar commands?

How can I run a script remotely. I checked the documentation and I can't find how I can use 'load script script.xsf' when the script is not available on the switch?

I don't believe there is.
