Thanks for the reply. We 're trying to archive all our Zen workstation
images and some of them happen to be over 4GB. Archive/Backup operations
look fine, normal speeds and conclude with no errors, but no more than
4GB is ever there. I've moved a test image over to AIX machine and no
problems there but we're mainly a NetWare shop. Ah well, thanks again.

We have a similar issue. PMR 72319 in progress with tech support.

We are trying to read backupset file which is about 12GB in size on
Netware volume. It looks like that any size less than 4GB works OK,
but
if I create backupset larger than 4GB and move it to Netware volume it
doesn't work.

Trace file sent to support; waiting for answer.

Not much of a help; but just for you to feel that you are not the only
one with the problems.

Subject: files larger than 4GB fail on NetWare client

I asked a while ago about archive attempts on files larger than 4GB
failing on the 5.02.03 NetWare client. I know some people think it is
a
NetWare issue but we've done some research of our own and other backup
products seem to work with the NetWare TSAs in that situation. We
really
need to move forward on this issue and we're going to give Tivoli
support a call. I've been told there are PMRs on this issue already
and
I was wondering if anyone could tell me the PMR number or whatever IBM
uses to identify them so I could cite them in any conversations I have
with Tivoli support. I have already tried the web-based support and
it's
been two weeks with no reply. Thank you in advance for any help.
