Comment 1 for bug 1405501

Hi,

The error was something like this ?
bash: [: 18446744073692774399: integer expression expected

If so, probably means that bash is not able to manage this big number,
by the way this number is around 17 Peta Bytes or 17 thousand million
giga bytes

A server with all this ram nowadays could be quite expensive ;)

Can you try to reduce the shammax to a value like 100 GB?
107374182400 ( 100 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024 )

Regards
Gorka
