I think you can create volumes with up to 4 TB in them, barring other
restrictions by your server's OS.

How are you going to read these very large files? The AIX system call
interface doesn't support that...
>From a handy AIX 3.2 man page:
caddr_t mmap (addr, len, prot, flags, fildes, off)
>>, off)
caddr_t addr;
size_t len;
int prot, flags, fildes;
off_t off;
And from sys/types.h:
typedef unsigned long size_t;
typedef long off_t; /* file offset */
And from sys/file.h:
off_t f_offset; /* read/write character pointer */
So it looks like you might have trouble with files as small as 2GB.
