Roger:

Have a look at ulimit. The ulimit settings are in /etc/security/limits. Take
a look    
at the ulimit command(in 'list of commands' link) that is documented at    
the following link:

We're moving from one machine running AIX 4.3 and Universe 9.5 to a new
machine running AIX 5.3 and Universe 10.2.4.

Using tar.

The majority of the move goes fine.   Usual hassles.    Recataloging,
Reindexing.

But two critical large files repeatedly are a problem.   Both are type 30s.
And appear fine on the original machine.   Once moved, we can't even count
them without the following message.
WARNING: Internal file corruption detected during file open!
         File must be repaired, possible truncation.
         hsize: 2048  bsize: 2048 fsize: 1073741312
         WARNING: Internal file corruption detected during file open!
         File must be repaired, possible truncation.
         hsize: 2048   bsize: 2048           fsize: 1073741312
         Unable to open "GL.DETAILS" file.
And uvfilefix just curls up its toes and dies.
Production machine shows
1,048,576   -rw-rw-rw-   root sys  1,073,741,312 (same as the fsize).

The other file PAYABLES shows
1,048,576  -rw-rw-rw-  root sys  1,073,741,312

---was there some change in type 30 formating between 9.5 and 10+? that we
didn't know about.   I've only been with this company for 7 months, but we
so far haven't had to repair any files.

These are the only two files with problems and we can break them into
smaller non-30 files for the move and then recombine them.    But if anybody
knows of a type 30 issue, then I'd appreciate any heads up.

thanks
