I believe in 2.1.5 and later the maximum FS size is approximately 2terrabytes. (possibly 2.1.0 and later, I can't remember). The max file size in 2.1.x is a lot smaller than that (due to VM restrictions), but in 2.2 and later I believe it is lifted If someone can show us a box which needs a FS bigger than 2TB, I am sure we could increase it :-) Gary
