Summary: Shorten the length of the deployment folder path and define the maximum folder path length

Description: Network deployment creation will fail if the deployment folder is too long (i.e. there are too many characters in the deployment path). For example \\SERVER\DEPLOYMENTS\CIVIL3D2012\64bit\ is too long.

When the deployment fails, it does so towards the end of the deployment creation process and it has to be started over again. Autodesk has never listed the maximum folder path length that will not crash the deployment process. CAD Managers have to figure it out through trial and error.
