Check that no large files exist on the file system.
Here is an example of a command that you can run to locate large files:
# cd /export/home1 # find . -xdev -size +2000000 -exec ls -l {} \; |
If there are large files on the file system, you must remove or move them to another file system.
Unmount the file system.
# umount /export/home1 |
Reset the file system state if the file system has been mounted using -largefiles.
fsck resets the file system state if no large files exist on the file system:
# fsck /export/home1 |
Mount the file system using -nolargefiles.
# mount -F ufs -o nolargefiles /export/home1 |
You can do this from the command line, but to make the option more permanent, add an entry like the following into /etc/vfstab:
/dev/dsk/c0t3d0s1 /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s1 /export/home1 ufs 2 yes nolargefiles |
Previous versions of the Solaris operating system cannot use large files. Check that clients of the NFS server are running at least version 2.6 if the clients need to access large files.
