Does anyone know what the maximum disk size is on the HP 3000  systems
running MPE-iX 4.0/5.0?
 
There seems to be around an 8GB limit for actually creating a new set,
but there  seems to be around a 4GB limit when you write  files to the
drive.
 
I created a new set on a 6GB drive (creating a new set on an 8GB drive
fails) which  succeeded, but then I started writing files to the drive
and the system crashed when about 4GB of data had been restored on it.
At this point the volume set was totally unuseable, the system mounted
it as an error volume.
 
I have  searched  through  the  laser  ROM  manuals  and  can  find no
information about maximum sizes for a set or disk.
 
Any ideas would be appreciated.
