(1) Do you have only two files in the directory "folderxyz", as indicated in your post?
(2) Or do you have more than two?
(3) In case you have more than two, then what is the relationship between a "cad" file name and a "txt" file name it should be converted to? For example, if the directory "folderxyz" has 4 files: "foo.txt", "bar.cad", "fizz.txt" and "buzz.cad", then should "buzz.cad" be renamed to "fizz.cad" or "foo.cad"?

NAME
amanda-scripts - Configuring and using the Script API
DESCRIPTION
The Script API is a flexible system for invoking user-supplied scripts at various points in the execution of Amanda. This manual page
describes the operation and configuration of the API. For help writing Script API scripts, see http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Script_API.
SCRIPTS
This section lists the scripts included with Amanda, see the individual man page for instructions on using them. For complete How-To
information, consult the Amanda wiki at http://wiki.zmanda.com.
o amzfs-snapshot(8), - create/destroy zfs snapshot.
o script-email(8), - send email.
Script properties work just like application properties: they are insensitive to case, and - (dash) and _ (underscore) may be used
interchangeably.
SCRIPTS OUTPUT PROPERTY
A pre-dle-amcheck, pre-dle-estimate or pre-dle-backup executed on the client can output property on stdout that are sent to the
application. If the output line matches "PROPERTY str1 str2", Amanda sets a property called "str1" by the value of "str2", that property is
sent to the application.
