Just getting back to this (sorry, been busy).
I think this might have more to do with how the product in question
(z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition) generates the file versus the size.
If I do a wordcount on the file it shows no newlines. Then if I run an
awk command against the file, it (I assume) also sees no newlines and
hits it's line-length limit. If I run an iconv on the file to convert
it to IBM-1047 code page and try to browse the file, I get something
that says "line longer than 32752" or something like that. If I do a
wc on one of the .xml files for zCEE, it does indeed show >0 newlines.
To me, this should be APARable.
-bash-4.3# wc trace_large.log
0 36497 20971432 trace_large.log
-bash-4.3# awk ' { if ( length > x ) { x = length } }END{ print x }'
trace_large.log
awk: line 0 (NR=0): FSUM9393 line too long: limit 20000
-bash-4.3#

Use of a desktop editor + ftp, in this case, is simply expedient.

Would IBM recommend that if one of their products has a bug
you simply use one from a competitor?
It is annoying that the 3.17 has weird limitations for file sizes.
Is the size limit peculiar to 3.17 or a fundamental limit of ISPF Edit?
How big is the OP's file?
ISPF Edit and XEDIT appear to be RECFM=V-ignorant. They
appear to convert to Fixed on input and back to V on Save,
corrupting trailing blanks in the round-trip.
Does Edit translate the entire file on input, and translate it back
on Save, or does it translate only as needed for display?
(Good questions for ISPF-L.)
