Description:
I've been running exp_user_data backup for a number a days but I can't fnd the tar file.
The log file is pretty big and i don't see any error messages:
/exlibris/backup/logs
"-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 423312 Mar 16 09:28 ./backup/logs/exp_user_data_a6_Detail_090316_0851.log;"

All my cold, hot, user_data backups go here:
/exlibris1/backup/aleph

But the output of exp_user_data isn't there.

Resolution:
The exp_user_data method uses standard ALEPH export procedures, which tar the files and store them in their respective $data_files directory. This is so that the procedure that is used to restore from exp_user_data export knows where the files are. The restore procedure needs to find them in the $data_files directory.
