Suggestion - Ability to name VeeamZIPs

Post by moctad_harry »

Hi All,

We've been leveraging VeeamZIP in VBR as of late to take one-off copies of VMs while decommissioning them. Via the console > inventory and select multiple VMs it would useful if we could apply a name. Not only to make it easier to spot the job you're looking for in the logs instead of "Backup_2020-06-01T113718" but the .vbk file would then have a useful name too.

Would appreciate others thoughts on this one?

In my experience, if you VeeamZip a single VM, the file name will be the VM name. It only has the generic name if you VeeamZip multiple VMs into a single backup.
