Would it be wise to stop/start BackupPC every night? Can it introduce any problem? What if my copy process (for instance rsync over Internet to an off-site storage) takes 1 hour, maybe 2 hours some days, well that interfere with BackupPC_Nightly?

Option 1. Stop BackupPC.
Option 2. Make a snapshot of the file system.
