How do I make a filesystem larger than 2Gb?

AIX 3.2.5 and preceeding versions are limited to 2 Gigabytes per
filesystem.

With AIX 4.1 IBM allows filesystems up to 64Gb (reference:
Individual files are still limited to 2Gb. AIX 4.2 allows 128Gb
filesystems and 64 Gb files. (See also question 1.706.)
