How do I save (many) files to my MPIO?

This problem is related to a number of things. Firstly, the firmware shipped with the MPIO does not support more than a few files. It is easy to upgrade, and fixes a number of other things too, so very worth while.

Secondly, even with firmware 12.16 or higher, the MPIO still does not always store more files. This is because the index used on the MPIO only has a limited filename space, so long filenames take up more "file slots". It's unclear what the maximum filename length is, but short filenames seem to work fine. If you want to put a folder on the MPIO, that uses up one file space, so be careful!
