Hi there listers, I've searched the archives of previous posts on the subject in the hope someone has experienced the same problem. However I only managed few statements that perhaps indicate that INFOZIP has a 2Gb limit.
The file we need to zip actually has: 15,694,524,498 Bytes The INFOZIP ZIP JCL completes with RC=0 and the following info : Translating to ASCII... adding: xxxx/yy/zzz/ONCEOFF1.A000001 (in=2821109409) (out=1028850252) (deflate total bytes=2,821,109,409 compressed=1,028,850,252 -> 64% savings The INFOZIP job doesn't give any error message indicating that it couldn't manage zipping the 14.6Gb file. 1. Is it correct that INFOZIP has a 2Gb limit which prevents this. Should the job not have given an error message? Does anyone have a work-around for the 2Gb limit in INFOZIP ? 2. Is there anyway to avoid the file xxx.yy.zzz.ONCEOFF1.A000001 being stored in the ZIP file as xxxx/yy/zzz/ONCEOFF1.A000001 We are running z/OS 1.9 & Copyright (C) 1990-1999 Info-ZIP Type 'zip "-L"' for software license. Zip 2.3 (November 29th 1999). Your advice on the above issues is most appreciated.
