Question about max file size

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I have a pretty much default install of RH9 on a 1.7GHz P4
using the ext3 filesystem.

I was under the impression that the 2.4 kernel enabled file
sizes of a terrabyte or two, but 'ulimit -Ha' indicates only
'file size   (blocks, -f) 2000000' and with a block size of
4096 (from tune2fs) this is only 8GB, assuming my logic is
correct to this point.

Can anyone explain why my hard file size limit is only 2M
blocks?  Can this be increased?

Thanks,
Doug Wyatt
