Wasn't the original poster trying to do this with virtual disk(s)? And if that's the case it has a high potential of being in memory anyway? Or did I miss something. Steve

You need the XC mode setting if you want SFS to use VM dataspaces to map parts of the data into memory (which would be consistent with the errors you saw) for performance reasons. It works fine without it (as you've seen), but performance will be impaired with very heavily loaded SFS servers.
