Description:
The batch log for p_print_01 has the following error and no output is produced:

I/O error : file 'TP1'
error code: 9/194 (ANS74), pc=0, call=1, seg=0
194 File size too large

I/O error : file '/exlibris/aleph/a16_1/tmp/SAV45610'
error code: 4/6 (ANS85), pc=0, call=12, seg=0
146 No current record defined for sequential read

mv: cannot access /wrkspace/prod/nov01/scratch/print_01_2
end

The input file from p-ret-01 was 973,000 records.

Resolution:
Files output by ALEPH jobs have a limit of 2Gig (or, in some cases, 4Gig). Some jobs are set up to split the output across multiple files, but p_print_01 is not.

The records written to the TP1 file (the $data_scratch/print_01_1 work file) are typically 3,000 bytes each. Thus, this file can accommodate 6 - 700,000 bib records.
