I was thinking every 15 min or so. > 3)run a script to determine if backuppc is doing a backup, if so then sleep > for your wakeup schedule + 1 minute, if not then execute backuppc nightly Nice suggestion for wakeup + 1 min. This alleviates concerns regarding race conditions and the machine turning off then on again and perhaps missing a backup or killing one that was in progress. I grabbed some states from my existing BackupPC setup and it looks like I'll be checking the "activeJob" field. > 4)trigger a shutdown when backuppc nightly completes. This probably makes more sense than triggering the nightly first. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
