I am working with a new installation of freenas on brand new hardware. I have created a new ZFS volume (RaidZ2) with three ZFS datasets on four 3TB drives. I have created AFP Shares for each of the three datasets. I am attempting to move my iTunes library to one of these shares and I am getting the following error message:

"The item “iTunes” can’t be copied because it is too large for the volume's format"

The iTunes folder is 1.03 TB. The Dataset has 2.5 TB Available. Any advice on resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

System:
FreeNAS-9.1.1-RELEASE-x64 (a752d35)
Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 1037U @ 1.80GHz
Memory: 8061MB

I restarted my iMac and then I was able to move the folder to my FreeNas volume. I had to restart my computer once again to move a second, large folder to a separate volume. I am still not sure what caused this problem in the first place.
