hi there,

i'm using FMS4.5.1 x64 on redhat5.7 x64, and came into an issue, that large files on storage lead to storage breakdown often, screenshot is as below while in fact my local disk is only 50GB.

and i found info in core.00.log as follows:

2012-04-20 03:38:04 22547 (i)2581173 Negative offset detected (/opt/adobe/fms/applications/liveTest/streams/q0zMo5g/live) : offset=-50737413865234838271152080496235697469251866003895300492626033341588472832617430289030432003888521549819875333480469218646631466415167074600292986508583637554467342750840968219341220349698553654436233621498185621106397118566076069671837669369081112556714644563405586620533964800.000000

any idea on what dose that mean and what should i try to delete the offset so that my storage can work fine again?

Many thanks.

    Not much sure on this, but is your system time in sych with current time. Also, how are these files created? Can you explain the scenario when you get "Negative offset detected" in core logs?
