TSM itself imposes no fixed limit on the number of DOMAIN statements or
DOMAIN entries. System resources such as memory (if you try to add millions
of domain statements, you'll probably run out of memory at some point...)
and other factors (like is your backup window large enough to back up
30,000 file systems, especially over CIFS, in a given night's backup
window?) will dictate the limits.

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
