Solution or Workaround

Summary

LIBRARIAN INSERT returns the following
message:

run number too big (STRNAM)
exceeding 9999 run files during insert.

Cause

INSERT creates temporary run files to sort the arc segments. ArcInfo can handle up to 9999 temporary files.

Solution

Option 1:
Generalize the input coverage. This may reduce the number for temporary files.

Option 2:
Split the coverage into smaller coverages. Then INSERT the smaller coverages into the library.
