So, I'm going to do my *terrible two's* thing.......

        Why?      

What are you trying to accomplish?

I routinely create a sub-directory with the month and day in the title of the directory on which I begin a new backup.  So today is April 26th--the new sub-directory would be *0426*.

And, I actually use the month and day in the backup's name--so the backup file name is labeled *0426*--you could add the year--so *042613*--if you want--but I don't keep backups longer than about 4-6 months--so there's never any real confusion as to which year they are created.

I just did some quick tests but couldn't get this batch file to run from Ghost. You can run it manually or scheduled after Ghost has created the image.

Code:

CD /d %~dp0

set hh=%time:~0,2%
if "%time:~0,1%"==" " set hh=0%hh:~1,1%
set timestamp=%time:~0,8%
if @%timestamp:~0,1% == @ set timestamp=0%timestamp:~1,7%
set timestamp=%date:.=%_%timestamp::=%
echo.Timestamp :: %timestamp% 

ren fromnashville.iv2i %timestamp%.iv2i  

Ghost must be set up so all incremental images are named fromnashville.v2i.

Don't let Ghost Prepend computer name to backup.....

Your Short Date format in Regional settings should be yyyy-MM-dd

Put the batch file in the same folder as the incremental images.


Edit..... I ran my tests manually. It's probably going to be more difficult to do it in a Ghost schedule as Ghost adds numbers after the filename.
