4191.0. "8-level restriction from stone-age" by UTRTSC::HARLE () Wed Mar 05 1997 07:53

OpenVMS still has this archaic restriction not being able
to restore files more than 8 directory levels deep.

Would't it be nice a have a PWRK.INI parameter that prevents
Pathworks/VMS from making files that never can be restored?

	There are versions of BACKUP that no longer have this restriction; check the OpenVMS notesfile for specifics.

	This issue has been in PW since stone-age. It should be in the release notes. Adrie
4191.5	It does exist - trust me	VMSNET::MSTEWART	Thats it! You win the $64 question!	`Mon Mar 10 1997 08:34`	3
	RE .2 ... ah you'd better discuss that with the VMS folks - what Steven is talking about is a new and improved BACKUP that DOES backups and restores beyond the normal limit.
