I recreated filesystem as JFS2 and dfmfmt still show me that message but
"define volume" from dsmadmc worked properly (oops). There is some
difference between them, but it worked eventually for me. Hope my
experience helps the other.

Yuri,

AIX JFS1 filesystems have a maximum file size limit of 64G. The
filesystem output you've given looks JFS1 so I'll assume that /vol1 is
JFS1.  If you recreate the filesystem as JFS2 you should have better
luck.

Hi everybody.
I searched over ADSM.ORG and find out that there is no limitation for
volume size. But may be somebody can explain to me what am I doing
wrong?

The message I have got is :
# ./dsmfmt -g -data /vol1/vol1.dsm 120

File size for /vol1/vol1.dsm must be less than 68,589,453,312 bytes

I have on that filesystem 136Gb free space.

The computer is F50, AIX5.2 ADSMserver 5.2.0. No clients yet.

I created filesystem as follows:
  File system name                                    /vol1
  NEW mount point                                    [/vol1]
  SIZE of file system
          Unit Size                                   512bytes
+
*         Number of units                            [286261248]
#
  Mount GROUP                                        []
  Mount AUTOMATICALLY at system restart?              yes
+
  PERMISSIONS                                         read/write
+
  Mount OPTIONS                                      []
+
  Start Disk Accounting?                              no
+
  Fragment Size (bytes)                               4096
  Number of bytes per inode                           131072
  Compression algorithm                               no
  Large File Enabled                                  true
  Allocation Group Size (MBytes)                      64


Any idea would be greatly appreciated.

Yuriy Us.
