Subject: EXP > 2GB


All,
 
I have an export (9.2.0.4 on Solaris 9) that has recently grown beyond the
default exp 2GB filesize limit.  For the time being, I have implemented
exporting through a named pipe to generate the file "pre-compressed".
However, I think I heard about there being a patch to relink exp to handle
large file sizes at some point.  I can't find anything on Google or Metalink
right now.  Am I miss-remembering something or does somebody know about
this/know where the documentation is?
 
TIA,
