Well it seems that this is a TSM limitationnot a file system limitation
per IBM.

You need to provide more information than that.  I'm not aware of any
file system which allows a file of infinite size.

A file system characteristically limits file size according to file
system architecture and the current operating system instance
bitmode.  For example, JFS in a 32-bit AIX kernel limits file size to
64 MB.  And, naturally, a smaller partition size will impose a lesser
ceiling.

You need to take a look at your OS/fs configuration there, as the TSM
manual says.
