There was a post a while back asking about 2Tb limits and the
consensus was that with 2.6 you should be able to exceed the 2Tb limit
with GFS. I've been trying several ways to get GFS working including
using software raidtabs and LVM (seperately :) ) and everytime I try
to use mkfs.gfs on a block device larger than 2Tb I get the following:
Command: mkfs.gfs -p lock_dlm -t cluster1:gfs1 -j 8 /dev/md0
Result: mkfs.gfs: can't determine size of /dev/md0: File too large
Doesn't MD have trouble with SW RAID arrays larger than 2TB?
