In thinking further about this, the application pool could scale up to
40 TB. Is a 40 TB volume out of reality?

Hello,
I am going to be connecting to an equallogic san using RHEL5 x86_64
and serving up NFS volumes. I don't have any requirement as to the
size on the application side. I am thinking 4TB volumes but anyone
have any advice in this area? The data will be a lot of small files
mostly so I'll be sticking to a 4k block size with ext3.
Check RHEL releasenotes or other information for supported volume/filesystem
max sizes.
I think RHEL5 with ext3 supports max 16 TB filesystems.
Also note that you can't use normal partition tables because they're limited
to 2 TB. So you have to use LVM on raw volumes/luns or then GPT partition
tables.
