Apologies if this is mentioned in documentation:

Is AFS facing similiar 2TB maximum partition size limitation as ext2/3 or reiserfs?

I don't know the volume size limits, but you should use the same thought processes for AFS as you do for LVM. You normally use lots of relatively small volumes which mount at specific locations.



I think the question was asked with a different purpose. You can't solve the problem with any existing partition limits by creating more volumes.

You can move files around between volumes.


Give some specifics on directory structure, and we might have some implementation tips.


You sort of answered your question yourself if you talked about the fileserver. That's where that limit might be a problem. Fileservers store their data into a filesystem so you will have the same limits.

Not all volumes on a fileserver need to be on the same filesystem and partition.
