Our testing ceased when there was less than 5GB free space left on oss1c. This was well beyond the 60GB minimum that was set in the options. The characteristics of the files being created are: - new directory created every 10 minutes - old files closed in old directory - new file(s) created when new directory is created - no individual file exceeds 1GB in size (when 1GB limit reached, a new file is created) Thus, no file is remaining open or being extended in such a way as to grow this far beyond the 60GB limit. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?19253> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.nongnu.org/
