Plans here were something about 10 TB as a first step. Due to the nature of data and how they are accessed it's not really simple to split them up into different filesystems, as it's not easy to predict which parts grow most. Well, would a 10 TB fs work out of the Box with 5.2? - Oliver -- | Oliver Brandmueller | Offenbacher Str. 1 | Germany D-14197 Berlin | | Fon +49-172-3130856 | Fax +49-172-3145027 | WWW: http://the.addict.de/ | | Ich bin das Internet.
