It's a 5.2 system with pretty close to the > current maintenance on it. The CMS EDF (minidisk and SFS) file system has a limit of 2**31-1 records. For RECFM F, the records can be a maximum of 2**31-1 bytese. RECFM V is limited to an LRECL of 64K. That said, the FTP server has no way to buffer a text line (record) anywhere near 2G in size since that's the maximum size of the FTP server virtual machine. A large binary transfer should go through just fine, however, since the FTP server breaks it up into 64K chunks. If it got FORCED BY SYSTEM, something is strange since the port monitor should have recycled a broken server long before the timebomb went off. Hopefully the TCPIP and FTPSERVE console logs have more info. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
