If the problem is not maxsize, check all the copy groups in the domain and
see if ANY of them are pointing direct to tape.  (You can check what
management class a file is bound to by opening the GUI and clicking RESTORE
as though you want to restore the file.  Scroll to the far right, it shows
the management class. )

Directories get bound to the management class with the longest retention
period (RETONLY), and you can hose yourself that way.  Fix it by creating a
dummy management class with a copy group that points direct to disk, but has
a RETONLY 1 day longer.

You probably have a maximum file size set for the disk storage pool.
