A later version may help or it may be a config issue ... I chose to simplify the config of my backup machine and dump Virex. Oops, I forgot about this one. This was a known problem with that version of Virex. It also affected AppleShare, causing network hangs on file transfers. The solution to this problem is to upgrade to Virex 6.x. The new control panel can be used without problem.

Re: 2gb limit?
Title: Re: 2gb limit? I need to check to be sure, but I believe both are HFS +. The powerbook is running Retrospect, and backing itself up onto a firewire drive. -- Dana Rasmussen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Seattle, Wa From: Donovan Brooke [EMAIL PROTECTED] Organization: Epson Hillmer Graphics Reply-To: retro-talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 11 Jan 2001 10:18:51 -0600 To: retro-talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: 2gb limit? dana, there are several issues related to the 2 gig limit Mac File issue. first, the HD that has the back up set has to be in HFS+ format. Second, I would ask, how/what is your client doing the back up. is the powerbook a back up host that is backing up a mounted volume? or, is the powerbook running retro and backing up itself to the firewire HD? ASIP has a 2 gig limit also though I doubt you are running ASIP on the powerbook :-) dana rasmussen wrote: I have a customer with an interesting problem.

2gb limit?

Firewire?
Are there any firewire (IEE1394) devices that would be suitable to replace a scsi dlt type setup. In the interest of simplifying a customers G-4 setup it would make things a lot easier. -- Dana Rasmussen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Seattle, Wa -- -- To subscribe:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives:http://list.working-dogs.com/lists/retro-talk/ Problems?: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
