Description Amaya Rosa Gil Pippino 2011-02-23 11:59:07 UTC 
Description of problem:
In the official documentation page for GFS2 on RHEL6 (http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html-single/Global_File_System_2/index.html) it states GFS2 is based on a 64-bit architecture, which can theoretically accommodate an 8 EB file system. However, the current supported maximum size of a GFS2 file system is 25 TB. If your system requires GFS2 file systems larger than 25 TB, contact your Red Hat service representative. 

However this is not correct according to both http://www.redhat.com/rhel/compare/ and previous GFS2 on RHEL5 documentation.

Comment 2 Steven J. Levine 2011-02-23 20:28:41 UTC 
This bug was reported in BZ 660364 (which I cloned off as RHEL 5 bugs for both GFS and GFS2 for RHEL 5.6, which has since been released).

I am closing this bug as a duplicate of that bug.
