Abstract
A method for generating a unique subordinate resource name is disclosed where the method includes the steps of identifying a subordinate resource and the name of a related superior resource, truncating the superior resource name to form a truncated name, obtaining a counter number from a global counter, and appending the counter number to the truncated name to form an appended name which is assigned to the subordinate resource.
