I'm not using jumbo datasets and I have not reached the 4gb limit by any
means.
However, it looks like I found a solution that is working --
In the program I plugged in the logic to do a DBXEND/DBXBEGIN combo
every 1023 DBPUT's. Recompiled the program, and am rerunning the program
as I write this.
So far, the program is still running.

Capacity: 228532 (19), 1026, 1026, 721012 Entries: 228059
Highwater: 228059 Bytes: 180
However, it still leaves me with the uncomfortable, nasty feeling about the
stats provided by DISCFREE:

I feel I have too many files on my system to justify having an available
space on these discs of 90%, 91%.....
I have looked at the system log files and there are no disc i/o errors
listed.
DSTAT ALL doesn't show any obvious problems either:
dstat all

The two ST136475LW disc drives are listed in the iodfault.pub.sys as 18gb
drives, but the reality is that these are 36gb drives.
