When trying to use extendfs to create/enlarge to a large hfs file system, extendfs would appear to work, but print the message ERROR -- we are writing to the wrong fragments and the file system would be corrupted. This problem is seen only for extending file systems larger than 40GB. Defect Description: PHCO_18804: Ported from 10.20 patch PHCO_10578 for TOS. When extending the cylinder area needed for large file systems, extendfs could possibly corrupt the file system while enlarging it, forcing the customer to either fsck and restore the file system, or possibly need to do a newfs.
