AIX supports files > 2GB on: enhanced JFS
                                          JFS2
 
Eitherway you will have to destroy your original JFS logical volume and create 
a new one (of type one of the above).
 
Met vriendelijke groet, with kind regards,

Does JFS2 provide support for files greater than 2GB without explicitly
creating them that way?

Have you used JFS2 file systems for copypool creations?
