What is the max size of a Focus table?

Is there anyway to increase the size limit?

The FOCUS data source size can be a maximum of two gigabytes per physical data file. Through partitioning, one logical FOCUS data source can consist of up to 1022 physical files of up to two gigabytes each.

There's also the option of XFOCUS data source with a maxlimit of 16 GB per physical table. I assume the same limit as a FOCUS source of 1022 partions is in place. One note, though, there is a license fee for the XFOCUS source.

Hakan,

I think that XFOCUS is included in the WebFOCUS license now. When I was in the expert room at Summit this year, they suggested using it it as an alternative for a table size issue I had and mentioned that it available for use without the license.

P.S. Sorry about the spelling of your name but I don't know how to get the special symbols to show.

no worries. Since I've been around since PC/Focus did'nt support "national characters", I learned the hard way it's Alt + 134 on a numeric keyboard.

IB is quoting us $11,000 for the XFOCUS license, so I don't think we are going to go that route. I think we are going to utilize SQL tables to avoid the size limitation.

Thank you for your help.
