ACFS-01176

file system format requires volumes with sector size = number

Cause

An attempt to create a file system was rejected because the logical sector size of the primary or accelerator volumes was too large for the 512-byte metadata block size format.


Action

Select devices with a 512-byte logical sector size when creating a file system using the 'i 512' format switch. Use the command 'advmutil volstats' to verify that the volume's sector size is 512 bytes before formatting the file system. Alternatively, format the file system without the 'i 512' switch, allowing Oracle ACFS to create a 4096-byte metadata block size format.
