John, if you pull the 9.2 Utilities manual and look at the export parameters you will see that FILESIZE limits the number of bytes written to any one export file and FILE allows you to specify a series of export files to be exported to up to FILESIZE.

Subject: EXP > 2GB

All,

I have an export (9.2.0.4 on Solaris 9) that has recently grown beyond the default exp 2GB filesize limit. For the time being, I have implemented exporting through a named pipe to generate the file "pre-compressed". However, I think I heard about there being a patch to relink exp to handle large file sizes at some point. I can't find anything on Google or Metalink right now. Am I miss-remembering something or does somebody know about this/know where the documentation is?

TIA, John P Weatherman
