I am trying to execute a database dump to a file, but can't seem to get around the 2GB file size. I have tried setting the user limit to -1, but no luck.
did you set the fsize attribute to -1?
what does ulimit show?
ulimit -Ha
ulimit -Sa
I assume you are running jfs and not jfs2 - so you have to change the logical volumes themselves to allow filesizes above 2 GB

Frank, I set the hard file size attribute to -1, and it worked
zxmaus, what is the command to set the jfs file size? I looked in smat but couldn't find it.
Thanks alot to both of you for your help.
vi /etc/security/limits
fsize -1
logout and login again
