Hi John, It wasn't intentional - it was hitting 2GB because of a bug. After running clear-file to get rid of the bodgy data it's now a far more manageable size (~2MB).
Is the apparent write with the large key a genuine write, though, or is it a continued report of the keyless write?

Adam, getting to (or over) 2Gb and not a Dynamic file?

Hi, We've had an error on one of our client sites regarding bad keys on a given file and on the file exceeding its limit. The errors I'm seeing in udt.errlog are Fri Aug 05 10:36:46 cwd=<account path> 1: new block's offset is over the limit error in U_get_dest_block for file 'DEP.CHNG.Y', key '', number=1624 Fri Aug 05 10:36:46 cwd=<account path> 2: new block's offset is over the limit error in write_record for file 'DEP.CHNG.Y', key '', number=1624 Fri Aug 05 10:36:46 cwd=<account path> 1: new block's offset is over the limit error in U_add_record for file 'DEP.CHNG.Y', key '<key><data>', number=1664000 There was previously a problem in the software which would frequently attempt to write to an empty key, so the file was rather stuffed up (no addressable records, total file size of ~2GB). The problem causing that write has now been rectified, however I'm not sure if there's a second write also causing a problem. The apparent second write is listed in the third error line as '<key><data>', by which I mean that the key it's reporting is actually composed of the expected key to the record, concatenated with the expected data content, e.g. for Key = "abcd" Data="some dummy data" The error line is reporting Key='abcdsome dummy data' Initially, I thought that the blank key write and the '<key><data>' write (3rd error line) were separate errors, but now I'm not so sure. Given that all three error lines are at the same time, and that there's only a single write in the software at that point, could the apparent large write actually be a continued recording of the initial problem, or is it genuinely a separate error which I would need to track down?
