Hello,
The scenario is a Hp clustered gateway that theorically can virtualize up to 16TB, and it seems that the limitation it's on NFS client that only can reach up to 2TB on large filesystems.
Please, could you confirm whether nfs client cannot see more than 2 TB file systems?
There is any workaround?

See below for output from a 32-bit nfs client to our 9Tb NAS.

Does that answer your question ?

Nope. That is completely wrong. The NFS client neither knows nor cares
about the size of your filesystem. If you have > 2TB accessible on the
server, then the client can and will use it.
What is true, though, is that if you compile without CONFIG_LBD (or
CONFIG_LSF on 2.6.17-rc1) then the statfs() and statvfs() system calls
will incapable of displaying more than 2TB.
IOW: 'df' will display some incorrectly small size.
Cheers,
Trond
