This file size limit presents a problem, especially when creating large files, such as LDIF exports from a Directory Server istance or message store dumps from a Messaging Server instance. The -f modifier specifies the maximum file size.
Any user can adjust the maximum file size limit downward.
However, only root can adjust the ulimit file size limits upward. Such changes will take effect only after the user logs in again. Additionally, it is possible to set specific user limits with the chuser command.
