can't cp file

[Igor Sovin]

hi!

when I try to cp one file to another directory, I
get the following message: File too large

how can I copy my file?

[Stf]

hello,

check what is the size of your file and check the unuse size of the file system where you want to cp it...

Stf ;-)

Size of file system is enough, already checked that first of all
the problem still exists.

Hi there.
Did you check the size of the file ?
Perhaps it is larger than 2 GB and the destination filesystem has not been created with the largefile option.
Check it pls.

EXAMPLES
Convert a HFS file system from a nolargefiles file system to a
largefiles file system:

fsadm -F hfs -o largefiles /dev/vg02/lvol1

Display HFS relevant file system statistics:

fsadm -F hfs /dev/vg02/lvol1


This is an extract from the fsadm manpages.
