<I was always under the impression that an IFS file cannot exceed 2 GB.>

That was a V6R1 limit.
Several limits were increased with V7R1
Either 256 gb or 512 gb , might be higher 1 tb.

But if your program is tereaspace enabled, you allocate storage and you write to the IFS though a pointer aren't you talking tereaspace being a limit?

But as earlier poster mentioned. It doesn't really matter. You can write one byte at a time or 10 million. You can write a single record in one write or you can write it in a dozen writes. The IFS doesn't care. It is just streams of bytes. The only reason it really matters and that is not much is efficiency.

What are the limits of writing a single stream record from RPGLE?
I need to write EDI unwrapped stream file, possible 10 to 100 meg
(it's
a monthly file to a government agency). Am using program based on
Scott Klement's IFS samples, currently writing one record per segment,
but have not figured out how to append each segment to a single
record, and what the limits will be. File is much larger than a single
field can hold. Looking for a sample.
