Hi All

I'm starting to back up a lot of VMWare disk images as for some reason the
VMware people are unwilling to install standard BA clients on their VMs and
prefer to snapshot their disk to a Windows box and back it up from there.

This would be a great application for the Subfile backup facility except
that the snapshots are over 2GB in size.

Has there been any notion to increase the size limit on subfile?  Is it
even possible ir is there some 32bit limitation in the architecture of the
facility.

Regards

Steve.
