According to a 7.1 IBM i Capacities manual copyright dated 2010, maximum size of a document is 2GB - 1 (documents would be in the /QDLS directory - this seems to trump the value in the next paragraph).

Maximum size of a *TYPE2 stream file is c. 1TB. It has to be in the root, QOpenSys, or a user-defined file system. Otherwise, the max is c. 256GB.

*TYPE1 stream files have a max of c. 128GB.

No, I meant 2 TB. Is that wrong?

Scott,

The only limit I'm aware of is the 2 TB limit of a single IFS file.

Maximum 2 TB? Did you mean 2 GB?
