Ken, I haven't researched these things. In your error routine, you could check the Stack to determine if you were in the ShutDown process. Since your data is stored on a server, and you want to make a backup. Perhaps you can send a request to the server machine through a Windows Service. If the machine that is hosting the data is not Windows, I'm not sure where to point you. Perhaps just an http request. Most likely something could be spun up even in apache to archive the databases.
