Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, We have a situation here where we have our Amanda backup system running on a BSDI v3.1 box (legacy system). We tried running a restore of a partition off of a recently departed RAID system onto another RAID attached to a FreeBSD v3.4-STABLE box over NFS. We keep running into a problem where the restore process keeps stalling mid-way thru the process with the error: -=- amrestore: short write: File too large -=- The NFS partition where it was restoring to had enough space (was at 28% of a 15GB partition, and the file being restored was just under 4.3GB in size). Could this be a NFS error, or a FreeBSD error? (I searched thru the archives before posting, no one else seems to have had this problem, so I am not inclined to think it's FreeBSD right now) Anyone have any ideas?
