Volker, the problem you are experiencing is probably not an Oracle problem but rather is an OS or disk storage unit related problem. I say probably because you did not list your Oracle version and hardware Os version though I do not remember a limitation on file size except for 2G and 4G were limits in the past on certain Oracle versions and OS versions. I do not recall every hearing of a problem at only 1G.

We use 1G and 2G files all the time. I would like to be using 4G files but I will have to wait till the next time we rebuild the database from scratch.

Check the alert log for any error messages.
