If you create a table which after including key information and the number
of rows asked for, and that size is greater than 4GB then you will get that
error. DBUTIL may truncate down to the 4GB limit which has not caused her a
problem, but you may as well turn on JUMBO dataset option, which will allow
you to have 10 4GB files tied together for one table.
