Hi there

Seeking some clarifications on this one as there seem to be a bit of
mixed information... 

Is there a TSM LIMIT to the path length of a folder/file structure it
backs up - note: TSM LIMIT - not WINDOWS LIMIT?? 

Eg if a Windows system has a path length limit of say 30,000 characters,
does that mean TSM can also back it up without issues?   Is TSM reliant
upon the path name limitations of the filesystem itself only, or does
TSM have its own length limitations?
