Backup multiple nodes to same NAS

[adamm]

I was looking at the file names on backups. Looks like:

vzdump-qemu-[vid]-[year]-[mon]-[day]-[hour]-[min]-[sec].vma.lzo
​

If I have two or more nodes backing up to the same destination, and suppose more than one has a VM with ID 100 and suppose they all are configured to start a backup at midnight. And suppose the clocks are synced with NTP. Aren't I nearly guaranteed to have a name collision? Is that condition handled somehow?

In a proxmox cluster the vmid is unique so unless you have more than one proxmox cluster using the same storage for backup you will never end up with name collision.
