About the maximum fiesystem and file size on ext4 on RHEL5.4
Issue
- Can a file greater than 2TB be created on RHEL5.4?
- Could you let me know what is the maximum file / filesystem size on ext4?
- According to the RHEL5.4 Release Notes, it looks ext4 is phase of Technology Preview but is it correct understanding? The following article in it confused us slightly.
http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5.4/html-single/Release_Notes/index.htmlNote In previous versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux utilizing the ext4 Technology Preview, ext4 filesystems were labeled as ext4dev. With this update, ext4 filesystems are now tagged as ext4.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 x86_64
