The file was generated using dd with an input of /dev/zero. All the existing data (~6TB ) was successfully copied onto the storage with out have the error. The thing to note is that all the existing files are much smaller than the one that we are trying to copy in ( 248Gig ). And since we have been having the shutdown we have copied many smaller files ( files < 30Gig in size ) onto the storage area with out issue _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
