Change the ulimit for file size of the user coping the file to unlimited.
This is the default value 1 GB

I've got a box running 4.3 that now contains two very large files:
        -rw------- 1 root informix 2058059776 Jan 12 11:34 13316.0
        -rw------- 1 root informix 1107984384 Jan 12 11:37 13317.0

When I try and cp these files to another directory I get the following
errors:
>cp * /ismbckup/save0
        cp: /ismbckup/save0/13316.0: A file or directory in the path name
does not exist.
        cp: /ismbckup/save0/13317.0: A file or directory in the path name
does not exist.

And the resultant files end up being incomplete but the same size:
        -rw------- 1 root informix 1073741312 Jan 12 12:16 13316.0
        -rw------- 1 root informix 1073741312 Jan 12 12:44 13317.0

Large file support is enabled. Any ideas?
