Problem:

In this case using Server Express 4.0, when trying to overcome large file issues with FILEMAXSIZE in an extfh.cfg file and everything seems to be correct but nothing seems to happen.

The file looks like:

[XFH-DEFAULT]

FILEMAXSIZE=8

And a set EXTFH=/opt/microfocus/extfh.cfg is done.

Resolution:

Problem here is that one should not be using set rather then export.

set EXTFH=/opt/microfocus/extfh.cfg

SHOULD BE EXPORT

export EXTFH=/opt/microfocus/extfh.cfg
