Re-name the file after each run in after job sub-routine "ExecSh".

Code: Select all

mv /fully/qualified/path/of/abc.txt /fully/qualified/path/of/abc`date +"%Y-%m-%d-%H.%M.%S"`.txt

Do you mean use the current timestamp on the filename? Search the forum, we discuss using job parameters or the start timestamp macro.
