Yeah, this is indeed still a problem for me. My DumpPreUserCmd needs to preserve the logs. The problem is that if/when that cmd fails, the exit status is checked and it registers a failure. Thus, the main backup is aborted. With no main backup to process, there is no xfer log file saved and the output of DumpPreUserCmd is irrecoverable. This makes it very hard to troubleshoot a problem with no log output.
@CraigBarratt, Please consider reversing/revising this update!
