Why are some sets showing with long random numbers under Manage Sets?
Description

Under Manage Sets > Plugin Options, a series of Data Copy Plug-in Options sets have a long number in their name:
The format shows the set name followed by a long number: <set name> - <random number>
Trying to delete these sets results in the following pop-up error message:
Failed to delete any sets
Error: Failed to delete the set from database: Job(s) are using set.
What are these sets and how can we remove them?
Cause

These sets are called Auto-Created sets, they are automatically generated during upgrade from 9.2 to 11.x.when a job had been created with under 9.2 using default Backup Options.
The same would apply to restore jobs created in 9.2.
Resolution

If correcting these names is required, please follow this procedure:
- Click Manage Sets > Plugin Options
- Select a set to correct and click Edit
- Save it using the correct name
- Now edit the associate job that uses the problem set and use the newly created Plugin Options set instead and save the job.
- You can now delete the old set with the long random number under Manage Sets > Plugin Options , select the set and click Delete.
