Naming rules of AIP2022 image file

Summary

In AIP2018 and earlier, there were no restrictions on naming image files. However, for security reasons, AIP2022 and later versions do not allow changing the image file name. The default file name was defined differently in AIP2018 and earlier.

Host Name@img_Date_Disk Number_Full image number_Incremental file number.aiv / .aii

Ex)hostname@img_20220401_d00_00001.aiv
   hostname@img_20220401_d00_00001_i00001.aii

ActiveImage Protector 2022 organizes backups by creating a UUID folder in the backup destination. The image file name follows a specific format.

UUID_hash value.aiv / aii

Ex)23d81d99-cdbe-403d-94dc-8b77090db908\23d81d99-cdbe-403d-94dc-8b77090db908_xxxx.....30.aiv
   23d81d99-cdbe-403d-94dc-8b77090db908\23d81d99-cdbe-403d-94dc-8b77090db908_xxxx.....31.aii

To organize backup image files, make a sub-folder with any name and set it as the backup destination. Starting from ActiveImage Protector 2022 Version 7.0.0.8643, new tasks add "-host name" to the folder when saving backup image files.

UUID_hash value.aiv / aii

例)23d81d99-cdbe-403d-94dc-8b77090db908-host name\23d81d99-cdbe-403d-94dc-8b77090db908_xxxx.....30.aiv
   23d81d99-cdbe-403d-94dc-8b77090db908-host name\23d81d99-cdbe-403d-94dc-8b77090db908_xxxx.....31.aii
