You can make larger files, but U2 cannot address them, unless you enable 64-bit addressing. The limit is in the unix file /etc/limits (at least on AIX), as fsize. Fsize is usually expressed in 512b chunks, so a) check, and b) figure out your upper size requirement in local block size.

The 2GB file limit appies to *all* files, UniVerse or not.


Then maybe I missed something in an earlier post.  What is a general
suggestion if we expect any sort of file to be larger than 2 gigs?
Thanks,
