largefiles on volume manager disk

[t0shiba3]

I have created a ufs filesystem on a veritas volume mananger volume and have shared it with another machine (say machine1)using nfs share. Now on machine1 i am using tar to create an archive of a very large 8G dir and am sending it to this shared directory. The problem is that after about 2G it bombs out with message file to large. It sounds like a nolargefile thing, however i mounted it with the largefile option in volume manager so cannot see how this is effecting it. I am using 2.6

any ideas will be welcome
