What will happen if the same rdiff-backup sources and destinations are used by two simultaneously running backups? E.g. if there is an active backup from /home/ to /media/external, what will happen if I try to do another simultaneous backup from /home/ to /media/external ? Will any form of lockfile prevent this? If not, will corruption result? I ask because it appears I have ran a manual backup while cron was doing one in the background. Now, when I try to run the backup, I get the error:
Previous backup seems to have failed, regressing destination now.
