I have a full type backup file from DCE 7.8.1 which is compressed (one file with *.dce extension).
Due to migration to 7.9.0 I wanted to restore that backup but it failed after about 4 hours with following error: "Failed to extract".
Is there any way to manually extract that "dce" file extension and restore that?

Hi,
If you rename the file from .dce to .tar.gz it should extract with many archive applications.
In order to restore from this backup, ensure that it's extracted into a folder with the same name as the .dce file had. eg, if you have backup_hostname_timestamp_version.dce, you should have extracted backup_hostname_timestamp_version/backup.properties etc (This path isn't stored in the archive file).
