AIX 5.2 problem is a different one. I still haven't tried writting any large file on AIX. The problem is different on AIX: turning on the largefileserver compiler flag makes "vos dump" fail at server side because of a 64-bit type safety issue. After fixing that issue, I have run into filesystem corruption, too. So it's not a JFS or other limitation issue there. See the ticket I've mentioned in the link in my prev. mail. For Linux the problem is different. > > You're sure the client has a 'largefile enabled' AFS? > You're sure the server can write more that 4GB? > Try doing that directly on the device on the server.

I'm trusting our testers, so I still haven't checked these trivial conditions (they stated they have enough space at server side). Now that I see it's not an experimental feature, I'm going deeper to check them. -- Peter Somogyi Software Developer, Gamax Ltd. 1114 Budapest, Bartok B. u 15/d Tel.: +36-1-381-0544 e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
