Max file size in OSX Tiger?

I regularly backup my hard drive to my USB 2.x 80GB drive with Retrospect. As of the moment my backup file is 20GB's. Is there a max file size limit like there was in the old Mac os?
Thanks,
John

This article may answer your question:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25557
However, why are you creating a 20 GB file? Why not do a duplicate from one volume to another?
Mind you, you won't get booting as USB can't boot Mac OS X, but at least all the files will be there, and you won't suffer from an all your eggs in one basket issue, where if one file is corrupted the entire file needs to be recreated from scratch.

Command to Start/Stop "Windows File Sharing" on OsX Tiger Client

Dear Mac Gurus:
How to use command to start/stop “Windows File Sharing” on OSX Tiger client?
Thanks!
Max

Hi Max,
Windows file sharing requires two daemons, nmbd and smbd. They can be started/stopped as follows:
To start (type the following all in a single line):
sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/nmbd.plist /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/smbd.plist
To stop:
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/nmbd.plist /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/smbd.plist
The option "-w" indicates that the default setting (whether start them at boot time or not) is also modified (the same effect as you turn them on/off via System Preferences -> Sharing). This means, if you start them and shutdown your Mac without stopping them, then they will be automatically restarted next time you reboot the Mac.
If you use "load -F" instead of "laod -w", then they are started but the default setting is not modified (if it is off then remains off).
If you use "unload" instead of "unload -w", then they are stopped the default setting is not modified (if it is on then remains on and will be started at next reboot).
If you feel the commands are too long to type, then you can devide them into two commands, for example:
sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/nmbd.plist
sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/smbd.plist
See launchctl man page for more detail.

What is the max file size that a Adapter Engine [J2SE] can handle ?

We are having a scenario where a 4 GB compressed file needs to be sent across without mapping, I'm trying to explore the possible options to tackle this scenario.
Some of the options, we are considering :
- Sending a file from one Adapter Engine [J2SE] to another Adapter Engine [J2SE] bypassing PI. Adapter Logs will be monitored. What is the maximum file size that can be then handled assuming a standard installation ?
- What is the max file size that Adapter Engine [J2SE] can send through PI without mapping?
Any help with the above options or with any other possible solutions to handle extremely large file transfers will be much appreciated.

Hi,
j2se is not a good option here
if you have 4gb then you need a copy solution
a) build an proxy that will just copy the file from sender dest to receiver
b) build an adapter that will do the same as proxy)
this way processing of this message will be controlled with SAP PI/XI
it will be as quick as copy & paste of the 4gb file
I did the a) for one of the flow for 300 mb and it works perfectly

Automation in saving a image file with a specific max file size

Hi everyone,
I hope someone can help me by this.
Background info:
We got several image files every 2 weeks which should be edited and mainly reduced in size for web purpose. This work needs 1 work day for one man/woman to do, because he/she has to open the file save for web and then set the quality to a value were the file is nearly about 150-200 KB in size.
The images are different, some have few colors, some have a lot of colors and there are also different in resolution. But they should not be reduced in resolution, only in quality. All other specs of the image should be kept
Is there any possible script, plug-in or similar which can do the same (Saving with a specific max. file size) in some automatic and faster way?
Any help is really appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards

Max File size in UFS and ZFS

Hi,
Any one can share what is max file size can be created in Solaris 10 UFS and ZFS ?
What will be max size file compression using tar,gz ?
Regards
Siva

from 'man ufs':
A sparse file can have a logical size of one terabyte.
However, the actual amount of data that can be stored
in a file is approximately one percent less than one
terabyte because of file system overhead.
As for ZFS, well, its a 128bit filesystem, and the maximum size of a file or directory is 2 ^64^ bytes, which i think is somewhere around 8 exabyte (i.e 8192 petabyte), even though my calculator gave up on calculating it.

Max File size in XI

What is the Max file size can be use in XI

Hello
This depends upon your hardware and sizing of the XI box. so it also depends on how complex your mapping and whether you are using any BPM inside the scenario or not. I have come across where XI is used just to move the file of 1GB also.
but this is thro various tech like message splitting by using BPM.
so if you r sending the file of large size it surely brings XI down so it is adviseable to read chunks of data into XI and process further.
for message splitting you can use below links

Max file size

What (if any) is the max file size FMLE can make to serve from FMS? Do the profiles have any relation?
Thanks in advance
Matthew

I think you misunderstand the concept of streaming. FMS isn't reading from a file when it streams your video, it reads from your stream. This is dynamic - frames are pushed up to the FMS constantly. As such there is no "size" limitation per se. As long as you are streaming from FLME to the FMS the FMS will stream your data to people that connect to it.
However if you plan to create a file and upload that to the FMS for video-on-demand (i.e. not a "live" stream) that may be a different story. Not sure if there is a size limitation there.

Max file size OSB 11g can process

Hi,
What is the max file size OSB 11g can process? We want to do a POC that picks a file from FTP do some complex transformation and post to another FTP server.
So in this scenario what can be the max file size OSB 11g can handle?
Regards,
Abdul

Again, there is no fixed limit for message size JMS can handle. It depends on the Heap size available. But, In my experience JMS will reduce the practical limit much more than File/FTP transport. I have seen that you start getting a lot of OOM errors if you try to put very large messages on JMS.
Also, if you are going to transform the payload after reading via FTP/File transport, then you will need to initialize the complete payload in memory which will restrict the maximum message size which can be processed properly.
For large Files using Content Streaming is recommended but you can not access the streamed content within a message flow (hence no transformations).
Another limiting factor is CPU utilization, doing complex transformations on large payload will consume a lot of CPU which will effect any other processes running on the same machine (could be another service instance on OSB itself).
OSB is supposed to work with lightweight, stateless and fast processing. If you have very complex transformations, invest in an XML Appliance.
If you need to transfer huge files, then use ODI.

WRT350N USB Drive Max File Size?

What is the max. file size for the FAT32 USB Drive when attached to a WRT350N? When I try to transfer a 11.7 GB file to the Drive, the drive "disconnects" after 3.8GB has been transfered. [Transfer status window shows 7.9 GB remaining to be transfered a the time of disconnect.] I've tried both the Mapped Network drive and the FTP Sever approaches and get the same results every time. All smaller files transfer to the WRT350N USB Drive successfully every time. I using a Windows Vista Ultimate desktop (Wired connection) and the Router has 1.3.02 frimware.
The symptoms tend to indicate that the max. file size is limited to 4GB? Is this correct?

You will have to format your disk with the help of the WRT350N and after that you will have creat Share with same "Storage" tab on the linksys router.

Max file size of input schedule

Hello experts,
We are using BPC 7.5 NW sp4
I've created input schedule and it's size about 6MB. I tried to save this input schedule, but system returns error.
Currently the biggest file I've managed to save is 2MB
Does anybody know max allowed size of file for input schedules and reports? And How we can change this parameter
Best regards,
Evgen Chadiuk

Hi Evgen,
BPC doesn't handle upload of large files through the Excel interface very well. If you go into UJFS (in BW) and find the input schedules for your application, you should be able to upload the input schedule through that interface.
A good way to "compress" reports and input schedules is to delete all data from them before saving. I don't know if this will work in your case, but maybe it's another option.

Exporting to iDVD - Max file size - Shorter bounce time

I put in markers on an iMovie project that I did in GarageBand 08. After I put the chapter markers in, I went to export to iDVD but keep getting error message "Maximum file size of 2 GB exceeded. Please choose a shorter bounce time. However, the GarageBand version of the project is only 1.18 GB. I tried to compact it down but it gives the same error message.
I tried finding out what is meant by bounce time and how to shorten it but the online manuals don't mention it at all. I've used the chapter markers before in GarageBand and I've never had this error message before.

Don't know if you ever found a solution to this… I just ran across the same identical problem. In searching the web I found this discussion which seems to be working for me. It involves disabling an advanced preference in iDvd.

Max file size that can be broadcasted

Hi
COuld any one let me know what is the maximun file size of the report output that can be broadcasted through information broadcasting? I have a failure in broadcaster when the file size is too large around 6 MB if it is zipped?
Regards,
Kishore

Hi Kishore,
If you are feeling the file size is large then data in the report must be more. The broadcaster is may be failing because of large instead of size. So the restrict the selections and run the broadcast settings.
Hope tis helps,
