Re: Question regarding the 2gig file size limit on HPUX 10.20

You can try making an empty file (as dbname.exp) and then run the command: dbexport dbname -t dbname.exp -b 1024 -s 2000000000 and set the size to whatever you want. I'm not sure it will work but it is worth trying. Hope this helps, Octav On Tue, Aug 24, 1999 at 11:10:50PM -0400, jmhorn wrote: > > I understand the limit and the reasons the c call fails when writing to the > filesystem, but have been informed by the sysadm's at the office that 10.20 > does support >2gig files although it might take some tweaking to the kernal. > > One, can anyone validate this O/S support and speak about the required > configuration? > > Two, would making dbexport think that it is writting to a streaming device > (specifying a tapedev that is a file) get over this problem if the > filesystem does indeed support > 2gig. > > Any input is appreciated. > > mac- > -- Octav Chiriac Phone: (373) 2 22 99 67 NetInfo S.R.L.
