Thank you. I was going to ask if that could be the issue. I've been exporting to and importing from files larger than 2 GB at least as early as 8.0.5. I had a peer try to get me to stop once, say "that wasn't supported", but it worked on 8.0.5 and above on HP-UX 11/11i. I would look more into OS or OS/Oracle relationship problems here. Just 2 more cents.

Ask the UNIX people to mount the file system with largefiles option

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
