Running Aix 4.3 on s80 question to change file size limit to unlimited I believe this would be the syntax
ulimit -f unlimited is this correct also does it require a reboot?
 
reboot is not required but running ulimit command the change is interim and only for session command was run

BTW: makes it sense to set file size unlimited?

 
check "chsec" command

or just edit /etc/security/limits


 
vi limits file
default:
fsize = -1
Then logoff and back in ?any problems doing this on the fly?
