group,

for an ndmp backup in our nb6 mp4 linux environment, is there a way to
figure out in netbackup the correct file sizes for files over 2gb in
length?  

file sizes in dos on the cifs mount show:

05/07/2007  02:43 PM  2,129,720,345
USHOUSQLD05_CDEF_STS_USHOUPRJ01_1.BKP
05/07/2007  02:48 PM  2,645,920,368 USHOUSQLD05_CDEF_STSPROJBKP.BKP

05/30/2007  03:26 PM  8,996,257,432
USHOUSQLD05_AFS_RECON_75_TEST_OLD.BKP

and the java-gui shows a totally different file length. 
using the cat_convert -dump command shows file lengths of (which match
the gui): 

2,129,720,345  /vol/sqlbak/USHOUSQLD05_CDEF_STS_USHOUPRJ01_1.BKP
1,572,178,544  /vol/sqlbak/USHOUSQLD05_CDEF_STSPROJBKP.BKP
2,134,111,961  /vol/sqlbak/USHOUSQLD05_APP_DSTDATA_EOD_0429.BKP
1,430,159,711  /vol/sqlbak/USHOUSQLD05_APP_DSTDATA_SOD_0429.BKP
1,951,580,588  /vol/sqlbak/USHOUSQLDWD01_ITOPS_WEBSENSE_STG.BKP
1,689,872,915  /vol/sqlbak/USHOUSQLD05_APP_AFS_RECON_60.BKP
1,480,064,664  /vol/sqlbak/USHOUSQLD05_AFS_RECON_75_TEST_OLD.BKP

it appears there is an 8th field called "GB" displayed using cat_convert
that is populated for unix/nt backups that shows the actual file size if
it is over 2GB.  this field is always 0 for ndmp backups.  has anyone
else noticed this?

thanks,
jerald
