#3 Transfer Problem,

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have a problem transfering the backup files to a
remote host, i get the error (File too Large), the
backup file size is 5.2GB.

Any idea ?

Tareq,

How are you transferring the file? FTP, or NFS? If FTP,
I'm not sure FTP can handle a file that big. I suggest
using NFS, or SMB (you can do this by mounting the volume
manually and pointing to the mounted volume as a local
backup)

But in any case, if your backups are 5.2 GB in size, I
sugguest defining several "File:" directives to break it in
chunks. Personally, I haven't had the need to backup a
file that big :)

Here are a couple of things to check for:

- Do you have enough room on the remote system to
store the file?

- Does the file system on the remote system support
large files? Some systems only support files up
to 2GB.

Where does this message appear in the output? Could
you include the full output from REOBack?

Thanks!
