Hi,

the option -F vxfs seems to be wrong.
Either run the command without this option or check your /et/fstab.

Dear Sid,

Your error mesg says, u didnt use the raw lv name ( Used only lvol nale), to enable the largefile option.

# umount /
#fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vgxx/rlvolx
#mount /dsv/vgxx/lvolXX /

All the best

Jay

Dear sid,

Please let us know which is the filesystem that you are using.

If it is vxfs then,

#fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vgxy/lvolx

This should work !

With Regards,

Siva.

Hi Sid,

The command for enabling the largefiles for vxfs filesystems is

#fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vgxx/lvolx

u can try this !!!

Krishna

1.check your file system is set to largefiles or not
# fstyp -v /dev/vgDELTA/rlvolDELTA3
vxfs
version: 4
f_bsize: 8192
f_frsize: 1024
f_blocks: 1048576
f_bfree: 1012763
f_bavail: 949722
f_files: 252964
f_ffree: 253188
f_favail: 253188
f_fsid: 1073807361
f_basetype: vxfs
f_namemax: 254
f_magic: a501fcf5
f_featurebits: 0
f_flag: 0 ===> this is not largefiles, largefiles is 16
f_fsindex: 7
f_size: 1048576

2. Create lvolDELTA3 to largefiles

# umount /dev/vgDELTA/lvolDELTA3
# fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vgDELTA/rlvolDELTA3
# mount /dev/vgDELTA/lvolDELTA3

You can use "sam" to set the file system to handle large files and avoid all the commands if you wish.
