Thread-topic: Failure creating GBs file size under EVMS/XFS
Hello,
 
Im having failure creating Giga Bytes file size. Below, I will 
describe my environment and failure. Any assistance/explanation/hint
is greatly appreciate.
 
Kernel = 2.4.18 + EVMS1.2.0 + XFS1.1
VGsize = sdb(33GB) + sdc(33GB) + sdd(33GB)
LVsize = 80GB
 
# mkfs.xfs -l size=32768b /dev/evms/lvm/myvg/mylv
# mount -t xfs /dev/evms/...  /myfs
# cp /root/tempfile /myfs/BIGfile                             //
tempfile is a 3GB dummy file
# cat /root/tempfile >> /myfs/BIGfile
# cat /root/tempfile >> /myfs/BIGfile
# cat /root/tempfile >> /myfs/BIGfile
# cat /root/tempfile >> /myfs/BIGfile
# cat: write error: Input/Output error
 
# umount /myfs                                                    //
recovery
# xfs_repair -L /dev/evms...
 
# mount -t xfs /dev/evms/...  /myfs                         // try again
# cat /root/tempfile >> /myfs/BIGfile
# cat /root/tempfile >> /myfs/BIGfile
# cat: write error: Input/Output error
 
Im trying to fill the LV capacity with a single LARGE file,
but I get "cat:.. error.." at every few steps. The recovery
requires a clear of the Log.
 
Thank you,
Michael.
