Do you mean in QTP (ie: total size of records accessed?) or QDESIGN/QUICK?
There is a problem on OpenVMS/Powerhouse when calling screens (run screen)
in batch processing using QUICK - there is a limit as to how many times
screens can be called (~32k times).  Otherwise, I've never experienced a
problem with the number or size of data processed.    (our main application
is current hovering around the 160gb size)

Hi all,

Does anyone know if the 2 Gig processing limitation applies on VMS platforms
as well as Unix ? 

If the problem is due to the fact that PH is a 32 bit application, and I am
assuming that PH is a 32 bit application on both VMS and Unix, then the
problem is likely to exist on both - any ideas ?

For those that may not be aware of it, the limitation on Unix was that
processing would stop after processing 2 Gig bytes had been processed. This
was then partially fixed so that processing would stop when 2 Gig records (
of any acceptable byte length ) had been processed.

Regards, Joe.
