U2 is (to the best of my knowledge) NOT 64 bit (software, that is).

The problem is, by default, it creates FILES which contain in their
structure a 32-bit offset field, so the files can't go above 2Gb because
this field gets corrupted.

Look up the 64BIT or 64-BIT) keyword. You may be able to just resize
your files. Otherwise just do a CREATE.FILE using that keyword, and copy
the data across.

You shouldn't have any trouble - I don't know when 64-bit files were
introduced to UV, but they've been around a while - like distributed
files which is the other way round.

If you think you're going to have trouble, it'll be a damn sight cheaper
paying an expert to come in for a day or two and help you out, than
paying for a migration to Oracle!
