Catalog name

[arobbert]

I created a copy of an existing catalog. Modified it and and tested the new backup i.e. test-copy. A catalog called test-copy.bkc is created.

Then I edited and changed the name to new backup. I deleted the old catalog file test-copy.bkc. When I run the backup a new catalog is created using the old name (test-copy.bkc). How do I force the backup to use the new name (new backup.bkc)?

It appears you are unable to change the name of the catalog once it has been created. Must be a bug. Version 6.2.

Hi,

1. What version of Backup4all do you have?
2. What is the backup destination type?

Hi,

I just tested the following steps and the rename works fine.
1. In Backup4all you have the "old-backup" job. Right-click it and select Duplicate. A job named "old-backup copy" will be created.
2. Right click the "old-backup copy" and select Properties. Type a new name for the job. For example: "new-backup".
3. Press Save. The job name will be changed and also the catalog and folder in destination will be renamed.
