Network and Storage Protocols
Hello
Does the NetAPP filesystem (Data ONTAP) restrict the length of filenames to or 255 characters?
Thank's a lof for any feedback!
Bill
It's not ONTAP limitation it's limitatation imposed from SMB and NFS protocols.
http://www.qnx.com/developers/docs/6.4.0/neutrino/sys_arch/fsys.html#NFS
"For example, the length of filenames may vary across servers from different operating systems. NFS (versions 2 and 3) limits filenames to 255 characters; mountd (versions 1 and 3) limits pathnames to 1024 characters."
