OS platform for BigFile TBS

217816Nov 27 2007 — edited Nov 27 2007
Hi Everyone -

I'm looking to yuse BigFile Tablespaces, and read in the documentation "Bigfile tablespaces should not be used on platforms with filesize restrictions, which would limit tablespace capacity." Which is good to know, but can anyone tell me which OS Platforms out there do not have filesize restrictions?

I'm on RHEL AS 4 right now, and looking ahead to RHEL AS 5 they state that the ext3 file system has a 2TB limit for filesize.

How can I create a 16TB Bigfile TBS this way?

Any help is appreciated.
