replace `T` with `_` in the backup_id
backups in barman are identified by a combination of the pg-server name and a timestamp (i.e. barman list-backup [pg-server]
). The logic is completely fine but it is very hard to identify a particular backupID due to the format yyyymmddThhmmss
. I guess the T
stands for TIME or TIMESTAMP of something along that line but I would suggest to replace it with an underscore so it gets readable somewhat to the eye (I am aware that scripts are fine with the status quo).
server_name 20211225_123455
instead of server_name 20211225T123455
server_name 20211225_123455
is somewhat identifiable for the eye where 20211225T123455
is just gibberish (to the eye).
The backup ID is based on the ISO 8601 basic format and that's where the T
comes from - that being the case we'd rather keep them as they are.
