Oracle does not support files larger than 2GB on Linux
Doesnt matter if linux itself support it or not.

It sounds as if you may have run into the 2GB file size limit. Has your
filesystem been created and mounted with the "largefiles" option?
An easy way to check would be to try and create the tablepace with a 1GB or
2GB datafile and see if it works.

I'm attempting to create a 3GB file on an XFS filesystem using Oracle

some errors. Here's the command and output I'm getting:

ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status
Linux Error: 75: Value too large for defined data type
=========================================
Any ideas as to what could be causing this? I thought the file size
limit is 4GB which is why I made the file 3GB. Is this correct or am
I missing something?? Many thanks!!
