LFS = Large File Support Python 2.2 includes this automatically if the platform supports it. For Python 2.1 it must be enabled explicitely. To check if it works for you, locate and execute test_largefile.py
I have run the following script
python /usr/local/zope2/Zope-2.6.1/lib/python2.1/test/test_largefile.py
And I have packed the ZODB Database which I will do regularly .
I am aware that Zope keeps track of each change on the O/S hard disk and processes utilise the O/S hard disk and regularly used Zope objects are cached and thus I have increased my cache from 400 to 8000 and now havd support for LFS .
My FileStorage didn't exceed 2G and I still didn't establish why I recieved *zdaemon SIGXFSZ!* *error .
"SIGXGSZ" is a signal sent by the operating system to a process when this process exceeds the assigned maximal file size. In case, you use "bash" as your shell, you can use "ulimit -a" to check the assigned process limits. Apparently, the file size limit is not large enough for your application. Ask your administrator to increase it... -- Dieter
