Feature Request- Pre Replica name suffix

Post by jmdiaf » 1 person likes this post

hello,
I would like to see the feature added under job settings to be able to add a PRE Replica name suffix in addition to the post replica name suffix. Right now we have random replica vms scattered throughout our VMware enviroment if we had a pre vm name suffix for the replica vms we could sort them by that. For example we could name them replica_VMname versus VMname_replica...this feature would help our company and probably other companies out a lot.


Thanks,

Joe

Just a grammar addition, so we are talking about a prefix, not a "pre suffix" :P

If you name it "pruffix" in the UI, it solves everything :D

I play the product manager here, let's call it "custom rename" and use the underscore as the identifier, as before.
People can choose to rename a vm as prefix_originalvmname or originalvmname_suffix, and the box would accept one of these.

Sounds like a very good approach to solve this. Sorting will be so much easier with this being available, thanks for listening!

[MERGED] Feature request

Post by StEpH@N »

Hi,

Following the advice i got from support i want to launch a feature request for B&R.
Not shure if this is the right place...

In replication jobs i would like to name replicated VM's with PREFIXES instead of SUFFIXES.
So the possibility to select another option than the standard suffix in the job settings tab.

For example REPLICA VEEAM instead of VEEAM REPLICA.

Thanks in advance.
