Is there currently a parameter in the naming portion of Ola Hallengren backup command that lets you put the name of the day in the filename when creating a DIF backup with SQL Server?
(i.e. Monday, Tuesday, or MON, TUE, etc.)

I would like to have 1 DIF backup per day that has that days name in the filename (like TEST_DIF_Monday.bak).
Currently the {day} parameter puts the number of the day of the month, like 1, 2, 21, 30, etc.

Thanks,

Greg

Would it work if I added a token for the day of the week?
