Hi together,
I had trouble finding a statement in the NFS wiki
http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
about sparse file support or development plans for it outside of (very
very) technical documents which I honestly didn't take the time to
understand. Maybe I can get you to give me short statement on this :).
Best regards,
Kalle Richter

I'd like to recommend you to put this information in the wiki, if you don't want to rely on $SEARCH_ENGINE finding this thread in the mailing list archives only :) Best regards, Kalle Am 30.06.2014 01:39, schrieb Anna Schumaker: > Hi Kalle, > > Currently you can use SEEK_SET to create sparse files through seeking.
