Local fix
This issue can be worked around by copying the core file into HFS
Problem summary
The problem is caused when trying to jextract a core file larger than 2GB that is stored in a dataset.
Problem conclusion
This defect will be fixed in: 5.0.0 SR12 6.0.0 SR9 . Jextract doesn't work with core file larger than 2GB on 31bit as the recordio libraries don't support it. However the work around is to use COPYDUMP or move the dataset to HFS and the new error message will explain this. . To obtain the fix: Install build 20100827 or later
