Depending on the client operation, you'll run out of address space if you're on a platform for which IBM only distributes 32-bit BA clients (i.e. x86 Linux). There's ways you can mitigate this (for instance, virtual mount points, memory efficient backup option). We still run into problems around 10-20 million files in a single operation though.

2) Is there a limit to the number of files the a TSM client can back up? ( I have found an unofficial document that specifies that TSM's HSM product can handle about 100 Million files, but again I can't seem to locate it in IBM's HSM documentation)
