System Adm

By default, if you try do copy/create a file larger than 2Gb in AIX, you will get a “file too large” message. That happen because AIX have a default limit of 2Gb for files.

To disable (or increase) this limit, edit /etc/security/limits and change the parameter fsize to “-1” or whatever value you want.

You can change it in “default” to apply to all users or change it to a specific user.

Remember that the file system should be JFS2.
