Appendix 6: Limitations
8If reload begins with file reading, and reading ends before
reloading is completed, file access time may not be updated. To
update the access time, read the file after reloading.
9Generally reload does not begin if a reading request is for within
the first 512 bytes of the stub file; however, in Solaris system,
reload begins sometimes.
In the following cases, reload begins because it is considered as
a request for data exceeding the first 512 bytes.
Y When the part after the first 512 bytes is accessed because of
the internal processing of the application even if the read size
defined in the application is less than 512 bytes
Y When accessing within the first 512 bytes via nfs (this is a
result of the prereading function of nfs)
10 If the size of one partition of the migrating file system is too
large in the environment that has not enough capacity, nightly
maintenance requires too long period of time. To estimate the
partition size, consider the capacity, and divide multiple partition
if necessary. Then the operations are performed in parallel.
