Backup Syntax

Trying to back up the home directory onto /home2, theres not enough space on the home directory so it has to be placed on the other drive home2.

Also the home directory is 47gb, will the tar command be sufficient, i've tried doing it via whm/cpanel but that failed.

this is what i have so far, looking at some of the posts on here

tar czvf /home.tar.gz /home2

though that places in the home directory how can i get it go in the /home2 directory

cheers
