I see, so you are going after a vmdk as (essentially) a flat file. From your first description I didn't catch that part.
So what you are seeing looks like an output error to me, not a problem reading the fuse source.
The target file system (under /mnt) can't handle a file that big. What is the file system type mounted at /mnt/AV162/AV162-LEDC1/LEDC1/ ? Can it handle files that big? What about mounting an external disk partition that is XFS or something that can handle huge files?
I don't think the issue is the destination drive (NTFS). I happen to have 1.9TB file handy, so I tried to use openSUSE to cp that to the same drive. It had no issues (I killed it after 10GB of progress). My research found several open issues at the vmfs-tools github upstream complaining about not supporting large VMDK files. I need to find an alternate solution I'm afraid. https://github.com/glandium/vmfs-tools/issues Thanks for the suggestions. I really don't want to boot the server, but that may be what I have to do.
