I don't know about the Unidata question but for the second one: A distributed file can span disks, that's about it really. As for very large files you could use 64bit dynamic files. Their maximum size will be dependent on your OS assuming it allows them. So you could potentially have a distributed file made of 64bit dynamic files if you wanted.
-----Original Message----- From: Chuck Mongiovi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 February 2005 17:03 To: [email protected] Subject: [U2] Distributed files VS Dynamic files I spoke with a friend a few days ago about Distributed files .. I had never worked with them before .. Now after doing some research (Kudos to Malcolm Bull) I understand what DF's are .. My questions are these: Is there an equivalent of a distributed file on UniData? Is there an equivalent to a UniData dynamic file (that can span disks and reach tera-byte size) on UniVerse? I know the two concepts are unrelated, but in the case of files growing over 2gb, they seem to overlap in usefulness .. Any ideas? -Chuck Mongiovi ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ********************************************************************** The contents of this e-mail are subject to contract in all cases and William Hill PLC, its subsidiaries or affiliates make no contractual commitment save where confirmed by hard copy.
