Hi,
First, since your seems to have disks and partitions bigger than
2G, I guess your system can handle big files. So the only option you need
in your config file is the large file option: -LARGEFILE sasvlfs .
You should not concern with the partsize stuff. I'm quoting from the
online help on : UNIX changes and Enhancements Documentation!
My system is still not upgraded to SunOS 2.6, so I'm still limited
to 2G or less files... I'm not talking from experience...
I would try this first, then if it doesn't work: search other
alternatives for your sorting problem...
regards,
Bernard Tremblay
