Greetings. I am trying to create a 10TB (approx) ext3 filesystem. I am able to successfully create the partition using parted, but when I try to use mkfs.ext3, I get an error stating there is an 8TB limit for ext3 filesystems. I looked at the specs for 5 on the "upstream" vendor's website, and they indicate that there is a 16TB limit on ext3. Has anyone been able to create a ext3 filesystem larger than 8TB? If ext3 isn't an option, has anyone used the kmod-xfs-smp.i686 module mentioned on the centos site? Surely it doesn't have an 8TB limit... specs: Centos 5.1 kernel-2.6.18-53.1.14.el5 3Ware 9550SXU 12port raid card Am I just walking into a big nightmare? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Monty
