One way of doing this is to use the 'domain' option. The domain option for the
daytime backup would list the single file system to be backed up then, and the
domain option for the nighttime backup would list the rest of the file
systems. The downside to this approach is its potential for maintenance
errors: a new file system added to the client will not be included in either
backup unless one of the domain option values is updated to include the new
file system.
