Copying files on CIFS mount causing 'No space left on device' error

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • When files bigger that 1MB are copied to a CIFS mount, cp ends with 'No space left on device' error. Nevertheless files are correctly copied.
# mount -t cifs //w3file01.ad.tof.de/DATEN$/Projektron/ /STW -o dom=ADTOF,user=bcs,password=*******
# cp ./ojdbc6.jar /STW
cp: closing `./ojdbc6.jar': No space left on device.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.2
  • Hitachi NAS Platform model 3090-G2 mounted via CIFS
