Hello,

first of all, tanks to all contributes for this project.

Hi,
Proxmox VE does not allow to rename snapshots.

Best regards

Hi,
I don't want to rename afterwards. I would like adjust the naming schema in advance.

Background is, that I want to replicate to a Freenas box. But actual Freenas complains that there must be a %Y with the year with 4 digits (2021) and not only 2 digits %y (21). The replication works without issues if I use the zfs-autosnap with naming schema %Y-%m%-%d-%H%M.

Thank you.

That's exactly what I looked for. Didn't see that. I'm sorry.

Thank you for guiding me in the right direction.
