I don't have a way of testing this at the moment, I will later. Thinking 
maybe someone on the list knows more than I, about this feature in MPE.
MPE 7.0

Looking at the following session out, what is MPE going to do when I 
issue the following command:

FTP n.n.n.n
bi
put /SYS/PUB/J3KBKUP ./J3KBKUP_yyymmddhhmm.bin
quit

Will the entire backup file be copied if it is more than 4Gib ?
Will only partial file be copied?
Can anyone explain the negative byte count?
