BTW, HP-UX 10.20 supports files/filesystems much bigger than even 4GB or 8GB. If I remember correctly, the biggest single _file_ anyone's created in our lab is 128GB. I believe the limiting factor on this is not the OS, or even getting that many physical disks hooked up, but the amount of time it takes to run a full suite of tests against a file that large :-)
