Shalom Ravinder,

fstyp /dev/vg00/lvol3
vxfs

If your system is 11.00 or lower, you will see largefiles in the /etc/fstab file. You must, whether the filesystem is formatted for it or not mount with the largefiles option.

mount -F vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vg01/lvol1 /oradata

The largefiles parameter was deprecated from mount in 11i and above, so you should NOT use it or specify it in /etc/fstab

Hello,

You can use SAM to check that out.

SAM--> Disk and Filesystems --> File Systems --> Select a FS --> Actions --> View More Information...

Use fsadm:

# fsadm /var
fsadm: /etc/default/fs is used for determining the file system type
largefiles

fsadm also reports if the file system has largefiles enabled:

# fsadm /depot/patch
fsadm: /etc/default/fs is used for determining the file system type
largefiles

Hi Ravi:

A simple way is:

# mkfs -m -F vxfs /dev/vgXX/lvolN

Change the filesystem type if this is not a VxFS filesystem.
