Hello Sebastian:

We just upgraded from AIX 4.1 to AIX 4.2 which removes the 2 GIG limit on filesize. You could also compress your exports to save space as follows:

#! /bin/ksh
rm /dsk1/usr1.pipe
mknod /dsk1/usr1.pipe p
cat /dsk1/usr1.pipe | compress > /dsk9/usr1.dmp.Z & exp / file=/dks1/usr1.pipe buffer=64000 2>& usr1.log

Good luck,

Laurent
