SAS supports DSNTYPE=LARGE for both libnames and filenames starting in 9.2. According to a user group paper, "A single SAS Library can now be up to 54GB on a single volume, and up to 2.9TB in a multivolume library."
There is some DSNTYPE=LARGE support in 9.1.3 with a hotfix. -- Jack Hamilton Management Information & Analysis - Analytic Information Services Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Inc. 1950 Franklin Street, Oakland, California 94612 +1 510 987-1556 (KP tieline 8-427-1556) NOTE: This email document and attachments are covered by CA Evidence Code §1157 and CA Health and Safety Code §1370.

I believe SAS files still have the 65k track limitation per volume. And I don't think they support large format either.

DMS (CA-Disk) does support this, but the test I did resulted in dataset that SAS/ITRM didn't like. I'm getting a bit cranky with SAS at this point. They've told us they support EF datasets, but when we called today we got a different answer. Grrr. There, I feel better now. Thanks!
