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%\Application Data\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.
