Dear ladies and gentlemen,

Is there an option to change the default directadmin backup format. What I mean is when you create a backup the name is by default as following:

level.creator.name.tar.gz

I would like to change this into something like the following (any unique parameter will do, preferably by hour).

name.date.hour

Is this possible?

Thanking you in advance,

Yes. Its been answered here before. You can change the file name after its done with the backup.
 
Hello Floyd,

I've already searched the forums using change backup filename as keywords, but I didn't find what I was looking for. Could you point me in the right direction?
 
I do not have the links memorized. But I thought I had given you one answer anyway. Do you want more than one answer or option?
 
Also remember that in order to restore from the backup you have to change the file name back to the original format.
