Title Maximum size for a tar file.
Ref. No. QNX.000006584
Category(ies) Utilities, Filesystem
Issue Is it possible to tar a file of 4 Gig?  It currently stops at 2G.
Solution The current file system for QNX does not allow you to have anything bigger than than 2G in size.

You can get around this by using NFS for example to send the file to a file system which does support files bigger than 2 Gig.
