What filesystem does ~root reside on? > r...@auriga:~# mkfs.xfs betelheise.io.new ... > r...@auriga:~# mkfs.xfs -d file,name=betelheise.io.new,size=17179869184 The difference between these two invocations is the first one uses direct I/O, the latter does not. It seems like the FS you are mkfs'ing on is failing to do direct I/O correctly. You can see this by running the commands via: strace -e trace=open mkfs.xfs ... and look for the open on your betelheise.io.new file each time. Just testing these two commands here locally, on a local XFS filesystem, and both work as expected, so I'm interested to see what the filesystem you're using there is. cheers. -- Nathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
