Agreed: "...a difficult if not impossible task of converting Jumbo datasets
to Large File Data Sets" [under "normal" circumstances].
Fortunately, Kent uses Adager and, once he gets the appropriate IMAGE version
(i.e., "with the fatal LFDS bug corrected by HP"), he can use Adager's
"Enable LFDS" (synonymous with "enable LargeFile") command to easily convert
his jumbo datasets to LFDS.
For your convenience and comfort, I made sure to DISABLE this Adager command
if you are on a version of IMAGE earlier than C.11.0. For example, below are
a couple of screen shots from two different hp3000 machines: The first with an
older version of IMAGE and the second with IMAGE C.11.0.

This database uses:
Jumbo datasets (which do not permit dynamic capacity expansion). If you
need dynamic capacity expansion, use Adager's "Enable LargeFile"
command to convert your Jumbo datasets to LargeFile datasets.
=====================================================================
You are running a version of IMAGE that supports LargeFile datasets,
but this database has Jumbo datasets.
Unfortunately, HP decided not to allow Jumbo datasets to coexist with
LargeFile datasets.
To be able to take advantage of LargeFile datasets, please use Adager's
"Enable LargeFile" command.
Before IMAGE version C.11.00, datasets bigger than 4 GB had to be
"Jumbo" datasets (with several "chunks", each chunk limited to a
maximum of 4 GB). Jumbo datasets did not support dynamic capacity
expansion (DDX for details, MDX for masters).
IMAGE version C.11.00 started support for LargeFile DataSets (LFDS),
which consist of a single MPE/iX file that can be as large as 128 GB.
LargeFile DataSets allow dynamic dataset capacity expansion.
Adager's "Enable LargeFile" command converts all of a database's
Jumbo datasets (if any) into LargeFile DataSets.

If you want to enable a new LargeFile (formerly Jumbo) dataset for
