A site run by some friends without net access are having some touble
running chuvol on a 760Mbyte SCSI drive. It is set up as one
logical volume under SR10.1.1.2 (Mentor patched version of SR10.1).
(The disk is out of a node with a faulty mother board.)

chuvol starts to run ok but seems to hang while perparing the file
list. It has been left for 3 hours or so without getting past this
stage.

Does chuvol handle volumes of this size?
If no, would splitting the disk into two logical volumes fix this?

(as a work around we could swap the node ID proms and archive the
disk to tape or copy the files to another machine, however the 
above questions are still relevant.)
