Hi Rohit

in your load script you can check the file size using the FileSize function.

If your QVD size is greater than 2Gb I'm sure your failed STORE commands will alert you to the issue! Seriously, you should think about segmenting your files.

Hi,

For checking the Size you can use FileSize function  as suggested by Marcus.

Assign the Size to a variable and create a Alert for On Post Reload Event.

Tools -> Alerts

Attached a sample of the script and where and how to create alert without using macro. If you follow the steps and you should be able to send alert emails to yourself once reloading the document if the file size is greater than 2 GB.
