As long as I can partition the FS and as long as the DBMS I use knows what to do with multiple partitions, I will hopefully be ok. I'll check though. That could be a very valid concern in this OS-decision making process. If I have a RAID >1TB, can I partition the disk into smaller chunks (as I probably would anyway) and still be able to use FreeBSD as the OS? Thanks for the heads up. -Lance On Wednesday, May 29, 2002, at 03:15 PM, Morse, Richard E. wrote: > Lance M.Westerhoff [mailto:lmw188@psu.edu] wrote: > >> But, we will >> also be connecting a 1.5TB RAID to two of the machines > >> As the databases grow, I expect each of them to encompass >> several TB > > One thing to think about -- I've been reading on the listserv a while > back that > FreeBSD has problems with filesystems larger than 1TB (I think).
