7.9 Non-Unix Large File Systems
(info about non-Unix large FSes also welcome; SHMO)
OpenVMS (any version) supports 2TB files (32-bit unsigned block
number, 9-bit offset) through its RMS interface (still limited to 2GB

bumped to 1 TB). (from a friend, rdv, 94/8/26, and Rod Widdowson,
Filesystems group, OpenVMS engineering, Scotland).
