I've just been informed that there is a 2GB datafile size limit with Oracle 8.1.7 on
Linux... PERIOD. This despite the fact that we've had files in excess of this for some
time and they work just fine. The problem occurs when the autoextend "feature" reaches
the 2GB threshhold. Of course, Oracle didn't tell me this until after about 4 days of
back and forth testing for them. (There is no such O/S file size limit.) I've reviewed
the Linux release notes, the Linux install guide, the Linux admin guide and the
contents of $ORACLE_HOME/relnotes and I don't find any such limitation in the
documentation. Did I miss it? Can anyone find any such published limitation in the
docs? Is this a secret?
Peeved at Oracle... AGAIN,
Steve Orr
