From what I can tell, the ENOSPC issue isn't fixed until 2.6.33 (http://oss.oracle.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1189#c25) so the version in backports (or even Squeeze) isn't much help yet I'm afraid. > Also you don't really explain what you're trying to use the data store > for (eg: lots of small files, video files, heavy writes, heavy reads, > random, sequential, etc.).

At present we have a variety of: * videos * audio * images * database backups (gunzipped tar) * large files (primarily zip) * small files The activity is primarily read with writes too but I'm not sure on the exact characteristics at present. I'd guess fairly random rather than sequential and there are periods with heavy writes. Files are served to 6 frontend web servers over NFS for serving with Apache2. We've currently got 2.2TB of space used. Thank you for your input - if there's anything else which would be useful, I'll see if I can provide it.
