hi, used 3 server. because, we using 3 different network, and must using bridge server to connected the other segmen
1. source server = 192.168.1.10 (SERVER1) (SOlaris 11)
2. Bridge Server = 192.168.1.11 (BRIDGE) / 172.16.12.10 (centos 7)
3. Destination Server = 172.162.12.100 (DESTServer) (solaris 10)
case:
1. Mounting Bridge Serve to Destination Server using IP 172.*/24 , using [mount //172.162.12.100/share /mnt/share]
2. from Source network, I try to SCP file to mounting at Bridge Server. My assumption the file will automated put on destination server
3. for file < 1 TB, the process copy always success. but When my file more than 1 TB, the error always said the file to large
ask:
how to set the SMB service will allow unlimited file, so I don't have any problem when to copy from source to Destination Server.
Thank you for your helping
scp - File too large
Re: scp - File too large
Sounds like the underlying file system does not support files that big. Can you create a file bigger than 1TB directly on the destination server? On Linux this can be done with dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/bigfile bs=1048576 count=1200000, not sure about Solaris. This would create a 1.1TB file.
Re: scp - File too large
before its normal to copy even use >2 TB, from server 1(source) to server 3(destination). but in my case, will issue for our network, because terafile will take all traffic network. because that i used bridge server, with private.
for your advise,
dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/bigfile bs=1048576 count=1200000
is it ok, or not? if i only paste and execute without change anything?
thank you

Re: scp - File too large
You may want to replace /tmp/bigfile with either /share/bigfile or /mnt/share/bigfile (depending on where you want your original file).
The output of fdisk -l may also be helpful.

Re: scp - File too large
If the file system does not support files larger than 1 TB , you can always split the file on the solaris11 and then download the pieces to solaris10 and merge tjem with cat.
Re: scp - File too large
If an option you could also go "Old School" : Copy the file to a 2TB drive and use "SneakerNet" to move it the the destination server, and then copy the file from the 2TB drive onto the destination drive. Some of these 2 TB drives are about the size of a a deck of playing cards, but slimmer and lighter. I use a 1 TB USB drive made by Seagate exactly for that purpose.katumping wrote: ↑2018/06/12 03:57:29hi, used 3 server. because, we using 3 different network, and must using bridge server to connected the other segmen

Re: scp - File too large
Further to desertcat's suggestion I remember some wise words from a tutor on my COBOL course back in the 1980s: "never underestimate the bandwidth of a bloke on a motorbike heading up the M1 with his panniers stuffed full of tapes". Networks may be faster and tapes/external drives/USB sticks have changed out of all recognition but the principle remains the same.
