Lou,
I wish I had my manpages in front of me now, and I know nothing about
Oracle, but.... If I'm not mistaken, you need to use the fsadm command
at 10.20 to enable large files. Seems to me that the option is something
like largefiles or nolargefiles. Check the manpage for fsadm. I'm pretty
sure that regardless of whether or not Oracle is able to take advantage
of large files, you won't be able to access the large file, or create
it, unless you have used fsadm to enable this feature on the filesystem.
