Hello,

I bumped into some strange problem. I need to backup files 5G in size from
a Linux client running on a RedHat 7.1 (kernel 2.4.2) system. File system is
ext2 and I have no problem manipulating the files from command line (e.g. copy
or cat)

The error message I see is like :

11/13/2001 18:10:11 vagus temporalis  from client
                    temporalis: ERR - Cannot lstat
                    /export/backup/exp/dw01/dw01_01110723.dmp.Z. Errno = 75:
                    Value too large for defined data type

The file in question is:

bash-2.04$ ls -l /export/backup/exp/dw01/dw01_01110723.dmp.Z
-rw-r--r--    1 101      dba      5511526149 Nov  8 06:37 
/export/backup/exp/dw01/dw01_01110723.dmp.Z


I have no problems backing up files of the same size from Solaris8 clients.

Is it a known limitation of NBU Linux client? 
I'm using NetBackup-RedHat 3.4patchNB_34_P0858, 
according to /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/version


Thanks,
