statvfs errors
in [Postfix]
|
From: CJ Keist on 10 Aug 2010 12:11 I'm trying to install postfix-2.7.2-RC2 on Solaris 10 sparc system. Make and install goes through fine. postfix starts up with no errors. But getting the following errors in the log file: Aug 10 09:58:43 mail1 postfix/smtpd[173]: [ID 947731 mail.crit] fatal: statvfs .: Value too large for defined data type this error corresponds when a message is trying to be delivered. The sending mail server is getting a stat=deferred. I've tried googling this error but not finding any solutions. One note, the postfix install is on a ZFS file system. Any idea why I'm getting this error? -- C. J.

I speculate that the statvfs API can't handle the very large result values that ZFS supports; perhaps Solaris has grown a new API that Postfix currently isn't aware of? Wietse

From: CJ Keist on 10 Aug 2010 15:18 Thanks, how do I compile to use statvfs64?

From: CJ Keist on 10 Aug 2010 15:53 Got it fixed! Simply solution. Just create a zfs file system for the pqueues with a modest amount of reservation size. I did 20Gb.
