How to specify backup name using Percona Backup Manager on bare metal servers

MongoDB Percona Backup for MongoDB

Hi there,

We are revising our backup strategy, where we want to take backups start of every month, weekly backups and daily backup.

Is there any way we can specify the backup name? i.e daily_{DATE}, weekly_{DATE}, monthly_{DATE}

We want to keep last 4 weeks backup and last 6 monthly backups, if we happen to use pbm cleanup command, it will remove all backups older than specific date.

Thanks.
