[Samba] Problem to create directories

[Antoine Rocher]

Hi all,


I have a problem with samba : I can create files, but can't create directories.

The server has many shares, on seperated disks.
We consider two of them : one 2Tb share and one share with more than 7Tb.
Samba configuration is good, and works on many other servers, and on this one except for the large share. Permissions are correctly setted up too.

I can read/write files and directories on the first one, on the 2Tb one.
I can read/write files, and read directories on the large one, but can't write directories.
I get theses messages on the log (with level = 5) :

It returns me an error saying my disk is full, but it's an empty one !
And I can create files and filled them with data without a such error.
(I also  try with 777 rights permissions on root directory where I want to create a new one, with and without the sticky bit).

As directory creation and write works on other shares with same config, I don't understand why I can't on this one ...

Is samba limited in share's size ? Or do you have any other idea for solving this issue ?
Thanks for your answers.
