- <para><xref linkend="settinguplustresystem.tab2"/> describes file and file system size limits.
- These limits are imposed by either the Lustre architecture or the Linux virtual file system
- (VFS) and virtual memory subsystems. In a few cases, a limit is defined within the code and
- can be changed by re-compiling the Lustre software (see <xref
- linkend="installinglustrefromsourcecode"/>). In these cases, the indicated limit was used
- for testing of the Lustre software. </para>
