problem editing big file in vi
I have a big file, which vi opens it with message not sufficient space with file system.
I am not adding any data in the file but changing some values within.
To make these changes effective, it asks for forced write (w!), even after doing this,
I see this particular record, change is not effected.
What do I need to do in order to effect the changes with this big file?
With my system elvis & vim is not installed.

strnstr
STRSTR(3) BSD Library Functions Manual STRSTR(3)
NAME
strstr, strcasestr, strnstr -- locate a substring in a string
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>
char *
strstr(const char *big, const char *little);
char *
strcasestr(const char *big, const char *little);
char *
strnstr(const char *big, const char *little, size_t len);
#include <string.h>
#include <xlocale.h>
char *
strcasestr_l(const char *big, const char *little, locale_t loc);
DESCRIPTION
The strstr() function locates the first occurrence of the null-terminated string little in the null-terminated string big.
The strcasestr() function is similar to strstr(), but ignores the case of both strings.
The strcasestr_l() function does the same as strcasestr() but takes an explicit locale rather than using the current locale.
The strnstr() function locates the first occurrence of the null-terminated string little in the string big, where not more than len charac-
ters are searched. Characters that appear after a '
