Hi Marco,

check and see if the filesystem where this file is getting copied has "largefiles" enabled for the filesystem.

To check if the largefiles option is enabled for the filesystem, try

fsadm -F vxfs /mount_point

This should return with the result

largefiles

If it doesn't then you have to set the largefiles option for this filesystem.

Hope this helps.

Marco,
If you find out that the largefiles option is not your problem, try using the hash option in ftp, I have found that it maintains connections on large files much better.

Good Luck,
