    Edit_Filename=(Options)
    Noedit_Filename

    When the Edit_Filename=(options) qualifier is used, the specified
    backup file name is edited by appending any or all of the values
    specified by the following options to the backup file name:

    o  Day_Of_Week

       The current day of the week expressed as a 1-digit integer (1
       to 7). Sunday is expressed as 1; Saturday is expressed as 7.

    o  Day_Of_Year

       The current day of the year expressed as a 3-digit integer
       (001 to 366).

    o  Hour

       The current hour of the day expressed as a 2-digit integer (00
       to 23).

    o  Julian_Date

       The number of days passed since 17-Nov-1858.

    o  Minute

       The current minute of the hour expressed as a 2-digit integer
       (00 to 59).

    o  Month

       The current month expressed as a 2-digit integer (01 to 12).

    o  Sequence

       The journal sequence number of the first journal in the backup
       operation.

    o  Vno

       Synonymous with the Sequence option. See the description of
       the Sequence option.

    o  Year

       The current year (A.D.) expressed as a 4-digit integer.

    If you specify more than one option, place a comma between each
    option.

    The edit is performed in the order specified. For example, the
    file backup.aij and the qualifier /EDIT_FILENAME=(HOUR, MINUTE,
    MONTH, DAY_OF_MONTH, SEQUENCE) creates a file with the name
    backup_160504233.aij when journal 3 is backed up at 4:05 P.M.
    on April 23rd.

    You can make the name more readable by inserting quoted strings
    between each Edit_Filename option. For example, the following
    qualifier adds the string "$30_0155-2" to the .aij file name
    if the day of the month is the 30th, the time is 1:55 and the
    version number is 2:

    /EDIT_FILENAME=("$",DAY_OF_MONTH,"_",HOUR,MINUTE,"-",SEQUENCE)

    This qualifier is useful for creating meaningful file names for
    your backup files and makes file management easier.

    The default is the Noedit_Filename qualifier.
