[cobalt-users] [Raq4i] Scheduled backup filename

["Richard Abrams" <richard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi folks,

Anyone knows how to change the output filename of a scheduled backup? The
default is host.server.dom_complete_yyyyddmm-nnnn.raq and our tape backup
machine seems to be choking on this due to the length.

I've found the script that generates this output file
(/usr/admserv/cgi-bin/.cobalt/backup/backup.cgi) and guess the variable I'm
interested in is $filename (which is copied into $backupfile later). However
I'm not _that_ confident with Perl and was wondering if anyone has a quick
pointer for stripping something off the filename such as the hostname or
type (complete).

TIA!
