Subject RE: [firebird-support] Database File Size
Author Eduardo Gamboa
Thanks Sean.

16 TB is a huge amount of data.

I think my database will grow up to 3 TB max. So I am going to keep my database in one sigle file.

Regards,

Eduardo.

The current limit is in the area of 16TB.

I would *not recommend* splitting the database into multiple files.

The secondary database filenames are stored in the main database file
with full drive and path information, which makes moving them awkward.
