Hi,

Can we create file systems of 3TB and individual files larger than
2TB on a 32 bit version of SLES9 SP3 using XFS?  If I read the XFS
project page correctly then this should work but I thought I'd ask
the list before I try it.  Thanks.

Yes, this should work.  Block device sizes that large will also require 
that your IO stack is clean with CONFIG_LBD, but I'd expect that it is.

XFS itself should not have any problems with this.
