check ulimit -a on the client userid you are using and on the server ulimit -a for nobody
one of these values is set to 2gb max file size
change in /etc/security/limits
you can also allow the client to write with root ulimits on server side by adding the atttribute -root=hostname (not 100% sure with syntax)to /etc/exports
edit: when you change limits you have to relogon

Hi,
I have a task of creating a UFS filesystem in an LDOM. It is located in a hypervisor (CDOM).
The storage has been provisioned to the CDOM. How do I make it reflect to the LDOM, and then from there configure/set up the filesystem in the LDOM?
Please help. (1 Reply)

ulimit
ULIMIT(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual ULIMIT(3P)
PROLOG
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the correspond-
ing Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
NAME
ulimit - get and set process limits
SYNOPSIS
#include <ulimit.h>
long ulimit(int cmd, ...);
DESCRIPTION
The ulimit() function shall control process limits. The process limits that can be controlled by this function include the maximum size of
a single file that can be written (this is equivalent to using setrlimit() with RLIMIT_FSIZE). The cmd values, defined in <ulimit.h>,
include:
UL_GETFSIZE
Return the file size limit (RLIMIT_FSIZE) of the process. The limit shall be in units of 512-byte blocks and shall be inherited by
child processes. Files of any size can be read. The return value shall be the integer part of the soft file size limit divided by
512. If the result cannot be represented as a long, the result is unspecified.
UL_SETFSIZE
Set the file size limit for output operations of the process to the value of the second argument, taken as a long, multiplied by
512. If the result would overflow an rlim_t, the actual value set is unspecified. Any process may decrease its own limit, but only a
process with appropriate privileges may increase the limit. The return value shall be the integer part of the new file size limit
divided by 512.
The ulimit() function shall not change the setting of errno if successful.
As all return values are permissible in a successful situation, an application wishing to check for error situations should set errno to 0,
then call ulimit(), and, if it returns -1, check to see if errno is non-zero.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, ulimit() shall return the value of the requested limit. Otherwise, -1 shall be returned and errno set to indi-
cate the error.
ERRORS
The ulimit() function shall fail and the limit shall be unchanged if:
EINVAL The cmd argument is not valid.
EPERM A process not having appropriate privileges attempts to increase its file size limit.

None.
APPLICATION USAGE
None.
RATIONALE

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
