Thanks! No, the disk inode (/usr/include/ufs/ufs/dinode.h) contains only pointers to the external attributes block(s). The primary reason UFS2 dinodes are larger than UFS1 are the conversion from 32 to 64 bit pointers and a few extra time structures (e.g. the inode creation time). If your files are minimally 1GB in size, I would think you would need UFS2 for the larger pointers. -- Rick C. Petty
