Hi JD,

 

 

You can create these files using dd (man dd for info) on LTM:

 

 

dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/tmp/output.file bs=1024 count=1024

 

 

This will produce a 1mb file. Increase the count to increase the size of the file.

 

 

Or you can update the blocksize and count to get a smaller size:

 

 

dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/tmp/128B.html bs=128 count=1

 

 

For other examples, you could search the web for something like "create file specific size linux"
