FTD and FMC backup creating a sf-storage folder

Hello,

Does anyone know why the FMC/FTD would create an sf-storage folder on a Linux Server? When I configured the remote storage I tried to point it so that the backups are stored into a certain directory, however it created a separate folder within that directory called "sf-storage" When I run backups it will place my FTD/FMC backups in another strange file with random numbers that looks like a serial number and then stores them into two subfolders called "backups" and 'remote-backsups".

I don't mind moving into these 3 subdirectories to verify that my backups worked, but I would like to configure the FMC to place the backups in the base directory i want to place them in. Can anyone assist? Thank you!!

I've always only seen it put the backups within an sf-storage folder in the target directory you specify. I don't believe this behavior can be changed.
