Viewing a Complete Directory Name

If a directory name is too long to display on the screen, use PF6 (Right) and PF5 (Left) to scroll right and left to view the complete directory name. Each time you press PF6 (Right) or PF5 (Left), the display shifts three characters in the appropriate direction to the next directory level. As you scroll left and right, the Indent level field is updated to indicate what level you are viewing. If the beginning portion of a directory name is not visible, CA VM:Backup precedes the name with an ellipsis. If the ending portion of a directory name is not visible, CA VM:Backup appends the name with an ellipsis.

In the following example, the last directory is too long to display on the screen.

ReqDirectory Name                                              (Indent level: 0)
   `/'
    `Projects'
      `Common'
         `Plans'
            `History'
               `Departments'
                  `Sales'
                     `Meetings'
                        `Notes'
                           `MeetingNotesFromTheQuarterlySalesStatusM...

After pressing PF6 (Right) two times to scroll the display to the right, the complete directory name of the last directory can be viewed. The Indent level is updated to 2. By scrolling to the right two levels, the first directory and the beginning portion of the second directory listed are no longer visible. You can use PF5 (Left) to scroll left to make these directory names visible again.
