well, if I can ftp, I already did it.
But the problem is m the DB server has no such big space
that's why I use NFS to backup the file.

-----Original message-----

use ftp, faster, fewer resources needed

if you cant use ftp, check limits (lsuser , ulimit)

if that is ok, post the exact size of the file, mount options, output of
df -k and the exact error message

Subject: NFS write a big file

Dear all:

I have a probleme about NFS,

I try to backup my DB via NFS to another server's hd

first , I export a directory /backup,size=10G,large file system(a single
file can exceed 2G) in this server. and then, in my DB server, I mount
this #mount server://backup /mnt

second, I try to backup my DB to /mnt

after the backup file growth to about 1.5G, it shows: "device is full"
But I check the /mnt still have 8.5G space left I can not find what's
going on

Anyone has this problem before?

How can I solve? thanks.
