title: Moving datasets | ||
--- | ||
|
||
Fuseki use [sparse files](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Sparse_file) to store datasets. Basically it means datasets appear to take more space than what they are really taking. | ||
|
||
If you want to move them to another server, you will need to ensure whatever method you use will take this into account, otherwise you may find yourself with 20-30 times more data than you initially had. | ||
|
||
For example the `tar` tool has a `-S` option which will look if the files to compress are sparse files and, in that case, only bring into the archive the "real" part of the file. More information [here](https://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_node/sparse.html). | ||
|
||
The `rsync` tool has a similar `-S` option which do the same. More information [here](https://gergap.wordpress.com/2013/08/10/rsync-and-sparse-files/). |
