To enable large file support on a filesystem you must:
A. Create a filesystem with the mkfs command and list largefile
support as one the options.
B. Use the fsadm command on a filesystem that already exists,
fsadm -o largefiles /data <--- /data is a mounted FS.
Then set the ulimit to unlimited as in:
ulimit -f unlimited
defadm login ULIMIT=unlimited
/etc/conf/bin/idtune -m SFSZLIM 0x7FFFFFFF
/etc/conf/bin/idtune -m HFSZLIM 0x7FFFFFFF
/etc/conf/bin/idbuild -B
cd /
shutdown -g0 -y -i6
And it'd be done permanently for all users for /data. You can do the
same thing for / rather than /data, if you want largefile support on
the root filesystem. UnixWare or OpenServer has an sdighost -l command
that will list all your drives and their names. Sometime people have
trouble with largefiles when they are not using the right device names
to start.
