dsmfmt breaks for more than 1024 MB
1996-08-13 08:26:10
Dear ADSM managers,
I am trying to allocate an AIX 4.1.4 disk file as a data storage volume
for ADSM, using the "dsmfmt" command. However, I am unable to allocate
a file of more than 1024 MB, even though neither the manual nor the
README file speaks of any limit.
The command:
dsmfmt filename 1025
fails, while the following works OK:
dsmfmt filename 1024
Why is there a 1024 MB limit here, and is it documented anywhere ?
If anything, I would think the limit is the 2048 MB AIX 4.1.4 file size
limit.
We have this version of the ADSM server:
# lslpp -l adsmserv.base.obj
Fileset Level State Description
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Path: /usr/lib/objrepos
adsmserv.base.obj 2.1.0.2 COMMITTED ADSM/6000 Version 2 Release 1
