Re: How to FTP big files (377 MB) from PC to IBM i

Thank you, Rob! Thank you, Jon!
 
 With the link from Rob, I see that the limit for a database file is 1 terabyte. I think for almost all of us, if not all, that's equivalent to unlimited. Gotta go see why it errors in the middle now. Maybe it's some company-set limit?
 
The message it errored on was cryptic. I'm going to run it again and look harder.
