How about "background_data" as new command group (maybe you meant it this way to begin with)? Like in: - background_data migrate - background_data compression Only caveat is: It is a bit lengthy this way. Maybe there is a good shortcut for "background_data" like "bg_data" or an alternative word for it that is short but also matches the meaning. But maybe these are more rare command calls and then length may not really matter. Best, -- Martin
