I'm going to go
out on a limb here ... don't stop the machine you're
backing up in the middle of a backup, perhaps? I'm not sure what kind of
magic you're expecting to happen.
BackupPC doesn't know why the system went down, so it would generally be a
poor assumption to pick up backing up "where it left off." You don't
specify what backup method or operating system you're using, but I'm not
even sure it matters, since the advice is pretty much the same: don't do
that.
