The reboot is probably due to the Startup/Shutdown Recovery option set to
Automatically reboot if a STOP occurs. Check your event viewer system log to
see if it gives you any more information.

Not really sure why TSM would do this unless the > 255 character filenames
is using up all your memory and this is kicking off the reboot.
