Are the maximum file size and filesystem size reversed in the info provided
in this link below it seems to indicate that the maximum filesize is 16TB
with a 4k page size, but the filesystem is limited to a 2 TB max.

What is the maximum filesystem size and maximum file size assuming an xfs
filesystem were created with a 4k block size?

What are the limits if the filesystem is created with a 16k block size?

Maximum File Size 
For Linux 2.4, the maximum accessible file offset is 16TB on 4K page size
and 64TB on 16K page size. As Linux moves to 64 bit on block devices layer,
file size limit will increase to 9 million terabytes (or the system drive
limits). 
Maximum Filesystem Size 
For Linux 2.4, 2 TB. As Linux moves to 64 bit on block devices layer,
filesystem limits will increase.
