Use this page to specify the path and name format for backup files.
Backup file path and name format. Provides a space for you to specify format for paths and names of .bkf files where you want the wizard to store backups. You can use UNC names to store backups in a shared network folder. The path format may include optional expressions that enable the automatic creation of subfolders. The file name format may also include expressions. For example, you might specify C:\DIRNAME\%COMPUTERNAME%-%DATETIME%.
As a result, backups for different computers will be saved in separate subfolders named by a computer name. In addition, the file name of each backup will be composed of the date and time of the backup creation.
Expression. Click this button to specify optional path and file name notations in Backup file path and name format. You can choose the following expressions:
Default backup storage (%BACKUPS%). Path to the default backup storage folder. Unless modified during the installation of RMAD, it points to the folder %AllUsersProfile%\Quest\Recovery Manager for Active Directory\Backups.
Domain (%DOMAIN%). Name of the home domain of the computer being backed up.
Computer name (%COMPUTERNAME%). Name of the computer being backed up.
Date and Time (%DATETIME%). Date and time of the backup creation.
| Note |
The recommended format to use for Expression is %BACKUPS%\%COMPUTERNAME%-%DATETIME% as this allows any backups related for each computer name to have all associate backups in the same folder and to be identified by the date and time. |
Browse. Click this button to locate the folder where backups are to be stored.
Sample path and file name matching the specified format. This box displays an example of the path and file name that matches the format string supplied in Backup file path and name format.
