SMB issues with large files!!!

Hi!

We had similar problems.

Our storages have 8GB RAM and the errors occured on the 2nd 4,5GB file.
So it looks as if the storage was cahing into memory and when the cache was full the error occured.

Are you using replication / snapshots?

We are replicating one storage to another one and on the destination we made snapshots of the destination volume.

We deleted the snapshot, stopped the replication and started both again.

Then everything was fine again.

Thanks for the reply. I'm just copying large .iso files. I didn't activated snapshots & replication...
Is there a way to disable or change settings, so it won't be cached?

I did some testing. When I put an extra 1 Gb-NIC and bond it, then large files bigger then 5,5 GB then it works perfectly... How odd! Why am I pushed to use 2 (gb) NIC's to handle large files?
