    Hi,

    I have mounted a Windows Drive from one of the machine to AIX system. After listing the contents of the directory the file shows the correct size. But on using of the du -sg command the size only shows 6GB. Also when i tried to copy files from Windows Drive to AIX volume only 4GB of the contents are copied and copy command terminated with error.

    Tried with cp, dd but none of them works well. Even i tried to back it up on Tivoli only 4GB is sent to tivoli.

    Also i have make the u-limits to unlimited even then it doesn't work.

    root@r3test# ulimit -a
    time(seconds) unlimited
    file(blocks) unlimited
    data(kbytes) unlimited
    stack(kbytes) unlimited
    memory(kbytes) unlimited
    coredump(blocks) 2097151
    nofiles(descriptors) 2000
    root@r3test#

    root@r3test# ls -lt
    total 12799418
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root system 131066036224 Mar 02 00:04 SDBcomplete
    drwxr-xr-x 1 root system 16384 Feb 08 22:48 Backup_scripts
    root@r3test#
    root@r3test#
    root@r3test# du -sg SDBcomplete
    6.10 SDBcomplete
    root@r3test#
    root@r3test#
    Reagards

    Using what technology configured in which way? The more detail you provide, the more chance someone can help.
