Backup hook, TARFILE variable not available since 7.1 update

[tabnul]

It seems that the TARFILE variable isnt available anoymore for backup hooks in proxmox 7.1
I tested it and it is not available in backup-start, backup-end and log-end stages.

Seems a bug to me. See also this PR where i implemented a workaround for a script that worked for 6.*

This has been changed in pve-manager 6.2-10 back in July 2020:

pve-manager (6.2-10) pve; urgency=medium

  * vzdump-hook-script: rename TARFILE to TARGET and add fallback to TARFILE
    for compatibility reasons

 -- Proxmox Support Team <support@proxmox.com>  Tue, 14 Jul 2020 10:28:42 +0200

This was taken from apt changelog pve-manager. It seems the TARFILE fallback has been removed with PVE 7.

Thank you for your reply. This indeed fixes it.
I do think the example code as referenced in the docs should be updated then;
