File system type can be found in 3rd column of /etc/fstab. For ext{2,3} file systems the block size can be found by tune2fs -l /dev/XXXX | grep "Block size" where XXX is something like 1) sda1 (for SCSI or SATA partitions) 2) md0 (for software raid devices) 3) VolGroup00/LogVol00 (for Logical Volumes under LVM) > > > Jim Perrin wrote: >> On 7/25/07, Centos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >>> What is the largest file size that can be created on Linux ? >>> is there any limitation ? >> >> This depends on several things, including the architecture (x86_64 vs >> x86) and the blocksize used for the filesystem. >> >> For ext3, it breaks out like this -> >> >> Block size Max file size Max filesystem size >> 1KiB 16GiB 2TiB >> 2KiB 256GiB 8TiB >> 4KiB 2 TiB 16TiB >> 8KiB 16TiB 32TiB >> >> > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS@centos.org > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
