Archive Name may NOT end in a number
Took me awhile to figure this out. Under V6, I had an archive named Backups-2012
Pretty sure this worked under early version of V7 :), but updated to latest version, and the log just said
Task 'Backup Servers - Jan 12' changed its state from 'idle' to 'waiting'. It waited for several days.
Editing the task, it highlighted the archive name in RED and showed a help message
saying Archive names can not end in a number. A number? seriously? Yup. Seriously. Wow.
Fixed by changing the archive name to delete the number, so an entirely new 300GB archive was created under a different name. Which is ridiculous.
Just warning others who may stumble down this same rabbit hole, and documenting so that Acronis may consider fixing this issue. I understand not allowing delimiters (punctuation) but numbers? Wow.
