Try running the command from within /usr/xpg4/bin/sh instead of /bin/sh. The classic Bourne shell on Solaris can be a bit funny with redirects sometimes...

Otherwise, is there a difference without a shell redirect? for example:
Code:
/usr/xpg4/bin/awk 'NR>1{print > "sample_file.load"}' sample_file.txt

or
Code:
sed -n '1d;wsample_file.load' sample_file.txt

Not the problem here, but
Code:
awk 'NR==1 {header=$0} index($0,header)!=1{print}' sample_file.txt > sample_file.load

would be more efficient.
And the following ensures it matches the whole line:
Code:
awk 'NR==1 {header=$0 RS} index($0 RS,header)!=1{print}' sample_file.txt > sample_file.load

Back to the problem:
Mr. Scru made suggestion to find the root cause!
Solaris sed needs a space here:
Code:
sed -n '1d;w sample_file.load' sample_file.txt

Please share the output of the following:
Code:
df sample_file.load
