Hi

I'm doing a weekly tape backup with $Conf{XferMethod} = 'archive' for
offsite storage, started from cron. This works fine but I would like to
label the sessions on the tape somehow.

Something like this on the commandline:
  tar --label="$HOST `date +%y%m%d`" -cf /dev/nst0 .

Is there a way to supply the tar argument --label="" to
$Conf{ArchiveClientCmd} somehow? Or do I have to modify
BackupPC_tarCreate and get into Perl programming?

Thanks
Dan

BTW: backupPC is a real lifesaver, keep on rocking!
