New File System creation

Hi all,

Can anyone help me ?

Fabrizio

Re: New File System creation

Don't forget to mount your Filesytem with the
largefiles flag too.

ie
mount -o largefiles /dev/vg01/lvol1 /mount

Remember:
the -L option in lvcreate is lvol size in MB
and the -l is physical extents of the vgroup, by default 4MB.

Have fun,
Bill
It works for me (tm)
