ERROR_CONVERT_TO_LARGE
What ERROR_CONVERT_TO_LARGE means
The allocation cannot continue in the current representation. The expected response is to perform the representation change and retry the transaction, not to report disk-full automatically.
Where it appears
- legacy OFS allocation and stream growth
- storage engines with compact and extended layouts
- transactional metadata updates during file expansion
Likely causes
- new extent no longer fits compact metadata
- containing object must be relocated
- stream crossed an implementation threshold
Evidence to collect
- old and requested stream sizes
- allocation transaction identifier
- available space and metadata consistency
- whether conversion was attempted previously
How to respond
Complete the documented conversion atomically, then retry the original allocation once. On repeated failure, inspect metadata integrity and free-space accounting; looping without completing conversion can leave the transaction permanently blocked.
