Status: Verified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.x
SYMPTOM(s):
Using the prostrct create to create a structure with fixed extents larger than 2GB in size
Database files will not expand beyond 2 GB
Large files are enabled
CAUSE:
The Ulimit or the file system does not support support large files
FIX:
In order to create a file beyond 2 GB, ensure that the appropriate ulimit value is set. This will allow files greater than 2 gigabytes to be created or written to.
This can often be configured on the command line using the ulimit command or via the kernel depending upon which limit is hit. On some UNIX platforms there is not a kernel parameter which deals with ulimit. On those platforms, there are kernel parameters associated with SFSZLIM (Soft File Size Limit) and HFSZLIM (Hard File Size Limit).
