When trying to create a snapshot (per the handbook at <http:// www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/snapshots.html>), the creation of the snapshot fails: /mnt/big# mount -u -o snapshot /mnt/big/.snap/"`date`" /mnt/big mount: /mnt/big: Filesize limit exceeded It takes about a minute to fail. This is a 300GB drive: /mnt/big/.snap# df -h /mnt/big Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/mirror/gm0s1a 269G 134G 113G 54% /mnt/big Am I doing something wrong? /mnt/big/.snap# tunefs -p /mnt/big tunefs: ACLs: (-a) disabled tunefs: MAC multilabel: (-l) disabled tunefs: soft updates: (-n) disabled tunefs: maximum blocks per file in a cylinder group: (-e) 2048 tunefs: average file size: (-f) 16384 tunefs: average number of files in a directory: (-s) 64 tunefs: minimum percentage of free space: (-m) 8% tunefs: optimization preference: (-o) time tunefs: volume label: (-L) /mnt/big/.snap# uname -a FreeBSD <> 6.2-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p2 #13: Sun Mar 4 17:28:48 PST 2007 root@<>:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/KERNEL i386
