Question: How do the file naming (server side) conventions work. Is it possible to get a duplicate file name? I notice one of my backups come thought with the date and then a load of zero’s. I wasn’t used to seeing that many zero’s in a file name.
Answer: There is an interesting variation you can use for file names, a registry value called “StoreNameChars”=”12″ for example will preserve up to 12 characters of the original file name and place them before RBackup’s default file name, which is explained below:
Example File Name without original name:
200302131250.16B69FD90000000004200000285.001 Example file name including original file name:
Employee.doc_200306011117.79292AB50000000670720000001.007
