large files

Is there a way to tell if you are running the "Large_files" option on a
machine..K,N or V running 11.XX other than trying to restore a file and it gets
to 2gb and dies?

Thanks

/etc/default/fs tells you what type of local file systems you have.Check out
the man page for fsadm.

Gary,

Within your /etc/fstab file, you should see an largefiles in the options field
of that file.

Alan gives you the most accurate answer of using fsadm to perform this check.
However, I want to clarify that the man page may show you incorrect format on
this command. It suggests:

# fsadm -F fs_type /block_device
such as in:
# fsadm -F hfs /dev/vg00/lvol8

The correct format uses either the raw device file or the mount point:
# fsadm -F hfs /dev/vg00/rlvol
# fsadm -F hfs /var
