I have heard that this support has been implemented in ADSM for NT V3 server
ptf3.  So if you download the latest ptf, you should be able to do it.

Does support for volumes >2GB exist for ADSM on Windows NT?  When I try
to define large disk volumes to ADSM using the GUI  Wizard it does not
work.  Thanks.

Allan.
