Receiving files on a dynamically enable auto-extension for an active zFS aggregat

Resolution

When receiving a file, CFT uses the FSPACE parameter value (provided by the sender) to check the disk space before the transfer starts.

When receiving files on a zFS with the auto-extension enabled, it can be an issue for larger files since the available space at checking time can be less than the needed space for the file itself.

Because we cannot prevent CFT from checking the free space before the transfer starts to write data, the workaround to overcome this problem is to set the variable FSPACE to 1 in the CFTRECV macro.

Then, during write operation the system will enlarge the zFS accordingly to the needs.
