The servermsg just schedules the backup like the web interface would.
There are constraints within the server configuration to control the
number of concurrent runs and when backuppc_nightly is running, no
backups are started.   If the web status display shows commands
pending, they should be run the next time the server wakes up and
conditions allow the actions.
