TSM client 5.3.0.8 on Windows200 server. TSM Server 5.2.2.0 on Windows2000.

This is a very large server with 15+million files. They lost this drive and are 
trying to restore one top-level directory, but the incremental was not able to 
complete. They were displaying in the GUI the directory and it was (finally) 
completing the display, but not showing the files they were looking for. I then 
did a command line restore of that directory and files are being restored that 
they want, but did not show in the GUI. They have told management that the data 
is lost and needs to be re-created, but some of it is being restored.

Is there a limit to the number of entries the GUI is able to display? The 
initial display took 1.5 hours before it showed anything. Just the 
Displaying..... message at the botton with the number going up. Somewhere 
around 79,000 it stopped, but didn't show everything that was available to 
restore. I was able to restore almost 400,000 objects over night that were not 
in the GUI display.
