| File System | Max Supported Size | Max File Offset | Max Subdirectories (per directory) | Max Depth of Symbolic Links | ACL Support | Details |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ext2 | 8TB | 2TB | 32,000 | 8 | Yes | N/A |

This maximum file size is based on a 64-bit machine. On a 32-bit machine, the maximum files size is 8TB.
[b]
When the link count exceeds 65,000, it is reset to 1 and no longer increases.

注意
The listed maximum file and file system sizes are what Red Hat has tested and supports. This does not take into account the theoretical maximum limits.
Both the maximum supported size and maximum file offset columns assume 4k blocks.
