If you have to rename host in BackupPC you have to:

Stop BackupPC service:
```
systemctl stop backuppc
```
Change the host name in host file (/etc/backuppc/hosts) to new name
Rename the pl file in pc folder (/etc/backuppc/pc), ie:
```
cd /etc/backuppc/pc
mv oldname.pl newname.pl
```
Rename directory in the backup location (I my case backup is storing in the location /data/BackupPC)
```
cd /data/BackupPC/pc/
mv oldname newname
```
Start BackupPC service
```
systemctl start backuppc
```
Pray
Check if it works
