Hi Jim, Thanks, but my question is not about how to monitor the file sizes reaching 2GB or on archival. My question is as below.
1. How can a file grow beyond 2GB (2.8 GB) without getting crashed. 2. Can a J4 type file grow more than 2GB? (as far as I know we have change the file type to JP or JR if we want to exceed 2GB limit for a single file) According to my previous experinece whenever a file reaches 2GB exactly at 2GB the sytem will throw an error message and file will not be operatable anymore. Kindly provide me a reply, I am in a confused state.
