I'm not sure if this is a vmfs issue or linux, so starting here. I have mounted a 3par volume (thinly provisioned vmfs) on my Linux box (64 bit) and I am attempting to copy it to a second hd. I have tried cp, scp, and rsync but the 1.6Tb file ends up with a zero file size on the target hd after many hours of growing in size during the copy. Smaller files copy over fine. It is only the large vmdk with this problem. Any ideas how to resolve? Raymond Norton LCTN 952.955.7766 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
