How to create a 14TB disk image (vmdk)?

Question

File systems

There is a 14 TB LUN, you need to create a 14 TB vmdk file.
The vmfs 5 file system has a maximum file size limit of 2 TB, a previous IT specialist somehow created a 5.7 TB vmdk file for the database. How to solve this problem? I couldn't find anything useful on the Internet.

Answer 1

It says that the file limit is up to version 5.5 of Vsphere! You are making a partition file with MBR, you need GPT
