Thanks to Casper Dik <Casper.Dik@Sun.COM>, the only one to respond. Casper said: >You must do soemthing with veritas to make it work for large files. which I knew. What I wanted to know was would ufsrestore continue restoring files after this error. The answer is "no". ufsrestore continued to run (but was asleep) and when the dump finished ufsrestore died with no more files being written. Nevermind. As I was dumping a subdir of the file system rather than the whole thing I was able to move the directory containing the offending files to another place and redo the dump/restore. I lost some time but had given myself plenty of room for error and ended up finished the server change over on schedule.
