Im sorry if I don't make myself clear.. 

Yes im writing to vtapes (harddisk). Yes there is sufficient space on
the destination disk.. and I tried to increase the virtual size, but
that doesn't helps.
The problem is that the destination harddisk has an fat16 or something
filesystem, and its only provide 2GB max filesize.
