I'm getting the "path too deep" error message when attempting to copy a large
folder (+200GB) from a USB drive attached to a Windows XP SP3 workstation to
a Storage Server 2003 R2 server. Seems that part way into the copy job the
operation will error out on a file. For example, it recently errored on a
file to which the full path to the file on the server would be:
\\nyc-nas1\AdAge Group\Creativity\test
1\AAO-2006-035\Source\MPEG\carphonewarehouse-accident06.mov_NTSC_6500.m2v
I understand that there is a character limitation, but to my understanding
this entire path does not exceed that limitation. Also, if I copy the file
individually it will copy to the destination just fine.
The USB drive is formatted as FAT32; the server volume is formatted as NTFS.
Any suggestions will be most appreciated.
Thanks.
