lstat unable to detect file system type & size

We are running a SAP install on a hpux 11i 64 bit os. We have a data file over 2G with large file support, but the sapinstall is using lstat to look at the file system it appears to fail. We have already installed SAP on the same Database on another system no problem. The only difference between the two severs is one has 16mb PE and the other has 4mg PE. Can anyone other some suggestions

Hi Robert:

The first item of interest is what 'errno' (if any) is returned?

Hi,

Can you post the error returned by lstat?.

You may want to double check if the largefiles option is really turned on on the filesystem. You can use the command to verify if largefiles is turned on.

mkfs -m /dev/vg??/lv??

I wouldn't believe if the failure is due to the extent size.

You may be disappointed if you fail, but you are doomed if you don't try

Have you try using lstat64() instead ?
