Hi there,
We have a few very, VERY long folder names and folder structures, now I understand that Microsoft has a limitation and there are hotfixes and patches for we have corruption issues or whatever the case may be to address it, we have installed each and every hotfix, and we have been restoring these long folder structures from NBU master to various locations for some time now, most of the time without any issues, recently however we cannot work with some of these elongated folder structures.
Sometimes in the NBU logs for a particular restore that has long folder paths and structure, I can see NBU trying to rename the structure but fails, but even so this has never caused an issue or never produced and problems for us, things just somehow "carry on"
We logged a Microsoft call, they have checked all items on their end and have said we need to approach our backup vendor to check their side.
A recent test restore from NBU of this long folder structure, we could open and use the contents on Server 2003/Server 2008 R2, any end user client based MS like Win 7 or 8, the only OS that we couldn’t work with the data content was on Server 2012, any ideas where to start
I want to go back with a clear answer that either NBU has nothing to do with it or yes do this and that and this...
