      Section Title:          Managing File System Attributes                                                              

      Issue description

      Tuning File System Utilization, section Managing File System Attributes, subsection The XFS File System, second paragraph: "With support for maximum file system and file sizes of up to 1 PB as compared to ext4's 50 TB file system limit and 8 EB file size limit, XFS is the obvious choice for large servers and high-end storage devices."

      Issues with this sentence:

      • File size Limit of 8 EB; how can that fit into a file system with max size of 1 PB?

      I guess there should be clarification between the maximum possible sizes and the sizes certified for different RHEL versions. Check the following solution article for details: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1532

      Steps to reproduce:

       

      Workaround:
