backup naming

Thread needs solution

I have 2011 and was working as expected until I had to restore a backup.

Te restore worked however my backups are not being named what I had defined them as.

For example I'd have one run at 02:00am Monday morning and called it BootBackupMon.

The backup still ends up being called My_partitions.tib

It seems that the option in defining a backup called "Backup name" does not take effect.

Help please

You have the opportunity to choose a name for the .tib backup file when you create a new backup task. At the point that you select the destination location, you may enter your desired filename for the backup. That's the only time that you can choose a name. If you try to edit the task later, you'd just be changing the name of the backup task but not the filename.
