Would there be a way to display the name of a VM/CT in the list of backups, such as highlighted in the attached screenshot? If not, can an enhancement be made to do this? Seeing the configuration name in addition to the VM/CT numeric ID would be very helpful when recovering archived backups.

Best regards,
Alex

What are your PVE and PBS versions?
In the latest versions, exactly this is already integrated.

Edit: You can set it in your backup job under "Note Template".

Thank you very much for the quick reply. I have the latest versions here, and located the Note Template tab in the backup job. After rerunning the backup job, I can now see the VM name under "Notes" in PVE, and under ''Comment" in PBS, when expanded.
